Yet they remain almost unknown even to specialist ancient historians. This book, the first monograph to be devoted to Aristomenes, redirects attention to his adventures, which at times resemble those of King Arthur, Robin Hood and even Sinbad the Sailor. Famously, Sparta tried to suppress the identity and self-confidence of its Messenian helots. Yet here are stories which give access to the imagination of this long-muted by ultimately liberated people.Country/Region of Manufacture: GBGenre: HistoryTopic: Ancient HistoryRelease Year: 2004 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
