Ancient Greek Warfare

Ancient Greek Warfare refers to the military strategies, tactics, equipment, and battles employed by the city-states of Ancient Greece, including Athens, Sparta, and Thebes, among others. This period of warfare was characterized by the use of heavily armored infantry soldiers known as hoplites, who fought in close formation phalanxes.
