This discussion topic comes from Herodotus’s History reading. First, mention some of Herodotus’s descriptions of the Spartan contingent – what are the Spartans like (look to the descriptions given by Demaratus and Artabanus, but consider more than just their warrior nature)? Then, theorize on a potential cultural downside to the overwhelming focus upon their military. Then, consider whether or not Herodotus is biased in favor of the Greeks, and explain how Herodotus’s account of the Persian Wars differs from Homer’s "account" of the Trojan Wars – how did Greek thinking/writing shift from Homer’s time to Herodotus’s?
