Classical Greek Civilization 700 - 324 BC Classical Greek Civilization 700 - 324 BC . Little is known about the time between 1100 and 750 BC because little to no writing took place, and this is why it is called a Dark Age. Between 750 and 600 BC, many Greeks left the mainland by ship to establish new colonies as a reaction to overpopulation, economic problems, and rising political tensions. Little is known about the time between 1100 and 750 BC because little to no writing took place, and this is why it is called a Dark Age. Between 750 and 600 BC, many Greeks left the mainland by ship to establish new colonies as a reaction to overpopulation, economic problems, and rising political tensions. Also during this time, Greece was marked by widespread famines. By 600 BC most farmers in Athens, who were in debt to the land aristocracy, had their property taken and were turned into slaves to work their own farms. Resentment of the ruling aristocracy led to tyrants seizing power in many city-states. These tyrants, meaning "unrightful ruler", were not necessarily bad because they forced the aristocrats from power and built marketplaces, walls, and temples. These tyrannies did play a crucial role as a rising distaste for tyrants led to the creation of alternative systems of government. The behavior of the tyrants created the desire among the Greeks to develop a more efficient and possibly fair system of government, such as democracy in Athens.

By 700 BC, Athens had become a unified polis. Athens . By 700 BC, Athens had become a unified polis. In 510 BC, Athenians had deposed their last tyrant and formed a council of five hundred that supervised foreign affairs, oversaw the treasury, and proposed laws to be voted on by an assembly of all free male citizens. What form of government is this? . Ostracism protected Athenians from someone gaining too much power; the assembly would vote to ostracize that person, and if a person received 6,000 votes then that person could not return to Athenian territory for 10 years. Ostracism . During the Age of Pericles, the assembly, consisted of around 43,000 males over 18, which had final authority to pass laws after free and open debate. Between 461 and 429 BC, Pericles was the dominant figure in Athenian politics, leading the Athenian democracy, rebuilding Athens, and expanded the Athenian empire abroad. This was Athens golden age.

Population 100,000 Citizens 150,000 Foreigners Slaves 35,000 . The role of the family was to produce and raise good Athenian citizens. Women in Athens had no formal education, but some could read, write, and play musical instruments. Women married between 14 and 15, and owned nothing but their personal items. A woman’s responsibility was to have kids to, take care of their family, and keep house. Women had to have a male companion at all times when traveling outside of the home. Sparta . Instead of starting new colonies, the Greek city-state of Sparta conquered its neighbors. Sparta . Instead of starting new colonies, the Greek city-state of Sparta conquered its neighbors.

Sparta . Instead of starting new colonies, the Greek city-state of Sparta conquered its neighbors. These conquered peoples became helots, basically slaves forced to work for Sparta. The Spartan form of government was an oligarchy, composed of two kings and 28 council members over the age of 60. Sparta was above all a military state with the art of warfare as the central focus of Spartan life, and all other arts were frowned upon. For this reason, the Spartans did not leave behind any great works of art, architecture, or literature like the Athenians did. Shortly after birth, a mother would bathe her child in wine, and if the child survived it was brought before a council by the child's father. If the council decided the child was puny and deformed, the baby was thrown into a chasm. Male Spartans began military training at seven, and Spartan girls received a similar education as boys, with less emphasis on military training. Spartan males began military service at age 20, they lived in barracks even if married until age 30, and military duty lasted until age 60. Spartan mothers would give their sons the shield with the words "[Return] With it or [carried] on it." . Spartan women enjoyed power and respect that was unknown in the rest of the classical world, such as owning property, moving freely in society, and speaking their mind in public. Unlike Athens, Spartan girls were fed the same food as their brothers, they were not confined to the house and prevented from going outside, or from competing in sports. Rather than being married off at the age of 12 or 13, Spartan law forbade the marriage of a girl until she was in her late teens or early 20s. Delaying marriage helped ensure the birth of healthy children, and prevent lasting health problems associated with adolescent pregnancy. Spartan women, better fed from childhood and fit from exercise, fared a better chance of reaching old age than other Greek women. The median age of death for women in other Greek cities was 34.6 years or roughly 10 years below that of men. When Spartans died, marked headstones were only granted to soldiers who died in combat during a victorious campaign, and women who died in service or childbirth. Because of the practice of infanticide, absence of men on campaigns, and losses in battle, the Spartan population was hard to maintain, and this almost proved fatal to their existence. The Greco-Persian Wars . The Ionian city-states fell to Persia in 550 BC. The Athenian navy helped liberate them in 499 BC, which led the Persian ruler Darius to seek revenge. The Athenians defeated the Persians at the Battle of Marathon, approximately 26 miles from Athens in 490 BC. The Greco-Persian Wars . The Ionian city-states fell to Persia in 550 BC.

The Athenians defeated the Persians at the Battle of Marathon, approximately 26 miles from Athens in 490 BC. From this comes the legend of Pheidippides. After Darius’ death in 486 BC, the new Persian monarch, Xerxes, vowed revenge. In 480, Xerxes led a force of about 180,000 troops and thousands of warships into Greece. Xerxes . At the Battle of Thermopylae, a force of 7,000 Greeks delayed the Persian force for two days, but were ultimately defeated. Hoplite Phalanx . At the Battle of Thermopylae, a force of 7,000 Greeks delayed the Persian force for two days, but were ultimately defeated. After the Greeks were defeated Thermopylae, the Athenians abandoned their city, which was sacked and burned by the Persians. The Persians were ultimately defeated by the Athenian navy at the Battle of Salamis, and at the Battle of Plataea by a combined force of 110,000 Greeks.

The Persians were defeated by the Athenian navy at the Battle of Salamis, and at the Battle of Plataea by a force of 110,000 Greeks. In 478, the Greeks formed the Delian League, an alliance of 150 to 173 Greek city-states under Athenian leadership, whose purpose was to continue fighting the Persian Empire. The League's name is derived from its official meeting place, the island of Delos, which was also the location of the League’s treasury. The League liberated virtually all Greek city- states throughout Mediterranean from Persia. Athens began to use the League's navy for its own purposes, and in 454 BC, Pericles moved the treasury to Athens, effectively creating an Athenian Empire. By 431 BC, Athens' heavy-handed control of the Delian League prompted the outbreak of the Peloponnesian War, leading to the League being dissolved in 404 BC. Peloponnesian War . By 431 BC, the majority of the Greek world was divided between Athens and Sparta, each having a very different society that had little or no tolerance for the other. The Athenians were fiercely loyal to their democracy, and Sparta and its allies had grown weary of the Athenian Empire. When war broke out in 431 BC, the Athenians, led by Pericles, intended to stay behind their walls and receive supplies from their navy.

  • 341 BC the THIRD PHILIPPIC Demosthenes Translated By
    1 341 BC THE THIRD PHILIPPIC Demosthenes translated by Thomas Leland, D.D. Notes and Introduction by Thomas Leland, D.D. 2 Demosthenes (383-322 BC) - Athenian statesman and the most famous of Greek orators. He was leader of a patriotic party opposing Philip of Macedon. The Third Philippic (341 BC) - The third in a series of speeches in which Demosthenes attacks Philip of Macedon. Demosthenes urged the Athenians to oppose Philip’s conquests of independent Greek states. Cicero later used the name “Philippic” to label his bitter speeches against Mark Antony; the word has since come to stand for any harsh invective. 3 THE THIRD PHILIPPIC INTRODUCTION To the Third Philippic THE former oration (The Oration on the State of the Chersonesus) has its effect: for, instead of punishing Diopithes, the Athenians supplied him with money, in order to put him in a condition of continuing his expeditions. In the mean time Philip pursued his Thracian conquests, and made himself master of several places, which, though of little importance in themselves, yet opened him a way to the cities of the Propontis, and, above all, to Byzantium, which he had always intended to annex to his dominions. He at first tried the way of negotiation, in order to gain the Byzantines into the number of his allies; but this proving ineffectual, he resolved to proceed in another manner. He had a party in the city at whose head was the orator Python, that engaged to deliver him up one of the gates: but while he was on his march towards the city the conspiracy was discovered, which immediately determined him to take another route.

The aS trap Of Western Anatolia And The Greeks Abstract This dissertation explores the extent to which Persian policies in the western satrapies originated from the provincial capitals in the Anatolian periphery rather than from the royal centers in the Persian heartland in the fifth ec ntury BC. I begin by establishing that the Persian administrative apparatus was a product of a grand reform initiated by Darius I, which was aimed at producing a more uniform and centralized administrative infrastructure. In the following chapter I show that the provincial administration was embedded with chancellors, scribes, secretaries and military personnel of royal status and that the satrapies were periodically inspected by the Persian King or his loyal agents, which allowed to central authorities to monitory the provinces. In chapter three I delineate the extent of satrapal authority, responsibility and resources, and conclude that the satraps were supplied with considerable resources which enabled to fulfill the duties of their office. After the power dynamic between the Great Persian King and his provincial governors and the nature of the office of satrap has been analyzed, I begin a diachronic scrutiny of Greco-Persian interactions in the fifth century BC.

  • Ancient Greek Syllabus Greek
    ANN ROINN OIDEACHAIS THE JUNIOR CERTIFICATE ANCIENT GREEK SYLLABUS GREEK 1. RATIONALE 1.1 Greek, of which the modern Greek language is its latest development, belongs to the family of Indo-European languages. With the decipherment of the linear B tablets, the written record of the Greek language now extends back to at least 1200 B.C. 1.2 The ancient Greeks were the first European people to record comprehensively -consciously and unconsciously - their intellectual development in the historical, psychological, political, philosophical, literary, artistic and mathematical domains. Consequently the roots of most major intellectual pursuits today derive ultimately from a Greek foundation. In the political field, for example, we owe to the Greeks our notions of monarchy, oligarchy and democracy. Indeed the words we use to indicate such political situations are themselves Greek, as is the fundamental term 'politician'. Likewise, the need we feel to investigate and record impartially contemporary events for future generations (essentially current affairs and history) was a Greek preoccupation. (The Greek word historia means both 'the activity of learning by inquiry' and 'the retelling of what one has learnt by inquiry', which is what the great Greek historians and philosophers tried to do.) 1.3 The Greeks recorded this intellectual development not only with the brilliant clarity of pioneers but with a sublimity which transcends its era and guarantees its timelessness. 1.4 The particular educational importance of Greek rests on the following general

  • Archaic Eretria
    ARCHAIC ERETRIA This book presents for the first time a history of Eretria during the Archaic Era, the city’s most notable period of political importance. Keith Walker examines all the major elements of the city’s success. One of the key factors explored is Eretria’s role as a pioneer coloniser in both the Levant and the West— its early Aegean ‘island empire’ anticipates that of Athens by more than a century, and Eretrian shipping and trade was similarly widespread. We are shown how the strength of the navy conferred thalassocratic status on the city between 506 and 490 BC, and that the importance of its rowers (Eretria means ‘the rowing city’) probably explains the appearance of its democratic constitution. Walker dates this to the last decade of the sixth century; given the presence of Athenian political exiles there, this may well have provided a model for the later reforms of Kleisthenes in Athens. Eretria’s major, indeed dominant, role in the events of central Greece in the last half of the sixth century, and in the events of the Ionian Revolt to 490, is clearly demonstrated, and the tyranny of Diagoras (c. 538–509), perhaps the golden age of the city, is fully examined. Full documentation of literary, epigraphic and archaeological sources (most of which have previously been inaccessible to an English-speaking audience) is provided, creating a fascinating history and a valuable resource for the Greek historian. Keith Walker is a Research Associate in the Department of Classics, History and Religion at the University of New England, Armidale, Australia.

Beginning in the late fourth century BC all Athenian boys who were in their eighteenth year had to undergo two years of military training called the Ephebia. The boys spent the first year in Athens under the guidance of state-employed military instructors and the second year as part of the garrisons of several frontier forts. In the Hellenistic period, the Ephebia changed, ceasing to be mandatory at Athens and elsewhere and increasingly focusing on providing boys with a cultural education centered on the gymnasium. homoioi ('similars' or 'peers') The Spartan term for full Spartan citizens, referring to their common experience in the agoge and the Spartan army. 2. Ephor (ephoros) y ͞Overseer,͟ magistrates, an office found in Sparta and in other Dorian states. In Sparta a board of five ephors was elected annually by the assembly; the senior ephor gave his name to the year. The ephors had great power in the Spartan state, including general control over the king͛s conduct. 3. Gerousia y The ͞council of elders͟ (from geron ͞old man͟). Term used at Sparta and in other poleis for the aristocratic council. The Spartan gerousia consisted of the two kings plus twenty-eight men over age sixty who served for life. 4.

The term ‘Sanskriti’ has been derived from the root ‘Kri (to do) of Sanskrit language. Three words came from this root ‘Kri; prakriti’ (basic matter or condition), ‘Sanskriti’ (refined matter or condition) and ‘vikriti’ (modified or decayed matter or condition) when ‘prakriti’ or a raw material is refined it becomes ‘Sanskriti’ and when broken or damaged it becomes ‘vikriti’.

  • The Persian Wars: Ionian Revolt the Ionian Revolt, Which Began in 499
    The Persian Wars: Ionian Revolt The Ionian Revolt, which began in 499 B.C. marked the beginning of the Greek-Persian wars. In 546 B.C. the Persians had conquered the wealthy Greek settlements in Ionia (Asia Minor). The Persians took the Ionians’ farmland and harbors. They forced the Ionians to pay tributes (the regular payments of goods). The Ionians also had to serve in the Persian army. The Ionians knew they could not defeat the Persians by themselves, so they asked mainland Greece for help. Athens sent soldiers and a small fleet of ships. Unfortunately for the Ionians, the Athenians went home after their initial success, leaving the small Ionian army to fight alone. In 493 B.C. the Persian army defeated the Ionians. To punish the Ionians for rebelling, the Persians destroyed the city of Miletus. They may have sold some of tis people into slavery. The Persian Wars: Battle of Marathon After the Ionian Revolt, the Persian King Darius decided to conquer the city-states of mainland Greece. He sent messengers to ask for presents of Greek earth and water as a sign that the Greeks agreed to accept Persian rule. But the Greeks refused. Darius was furious. In 490 B.C., he sent a large army of foot soldiers and cavalry (mounted soldiers) across the Aegean Sea by boat to Greece. The army assembled on the pain of Marathon. A general named Miltiades (Mill-te-ah-deez) convinced the other Greek commanders to fight the Persians at Marathon. In need of help, the Athenians sent a runner named Pheidippides (Fa-dip-e-deez) to Sparta who ran for two days and two nights.
