Best Answer

There have been many accounts of ancient Greek and Roman battle tactics. One particular ancient Greek battle however, stands out with regards to the later term of attacking with a concentrated force. At the Battle of Leuctra in 371 BC, the Theban general, Epaminondas defeated a Spartan army by adding over powering strength to one part of his battle line and attacked, breaking through the Spartan battle lines.As warfare progressed, the concentration idea began to take hold among generals from Rome to Bull Run.
