Women empowerment in Sparta:
Sparta was a prominent city-state in Laconia, a region located in Ancient Greece.
Sparta was a prominent city-state in Laconia, a region located in Ancient Greece.
However, one of the most important aspects of its success is that during a time when the world began to curtail women, Sparta held women in high positions and made sure that they held property, and contributed to the Spartan economy.
Because Spartan men were often absent from the city-state during wars, including the city's two kings. Women were required to hold higher positions to help govern the city.

More #badancient Spartans. A review of new book by Dr Andrew Bayliss of @theBRIHC The reviewer seems to ignore Bayliss's opening section all about the Spartan mirage: dailymail.co.uk/home/books/art… /1
No, 300 Spartans did not fight at Thermopylae. Bayliss explicitly mentions helots and other greeks being there. Also: badancient.com/claims/did-300… /2
And as for molon labe (it had to be mentioned didnt it!). Bayliss says outright this was a later embellishment - Herodotus loved a good story, he would have kept this in. We have covered this phrase here: badancient.com/claims/molon-l… /3
We have over 60 participants, but there are still some spaces left on our @Classical_Assoc Teaching Board CPD for Ancient History next Thursday. Supported by @Manchester_CA & @mcys_mmu #GCSE #ALevel #Classics #History
Pre-recorded videos for the subject-specific sessions will become available over the weekend through @Manchester_CA: youtube.com/channel/UC0tZA…
Some great sources and approaches from @Papyrus_Stories on #Cleopatra #Rome & #Egypt 60-31BCE - inscriptions, coins, statures and more:
Ci sono alcuni fattori che gli italiani che guardano all'#Olanda (e ci si arrabbiano, per via delle poliche spregiudicate anti-#lockdown) spesso non considerano, e che sono invece molto evidenti per chi vive qua: 1/
1. I genitori dei bambini delle primarie, che rientreranno in classe l'11 maggio, sono molto ma molto giovani. Molto più giovani dei corrispettivi italiani. Diciamo in media almeno 10 anni di meno.
2. I nonni non fanno da baby sitter (non full-time alla maniera italiana, almeno).
