Best Answer

The warriors who participated in the battle of Thermopylai were from the citizen armies of several Greek cities.

As part of being a citizen of a city, they joined the city's army when they were 18 years of age and were admitted into the ranks. They would be trained initially in basics of weapon handling by their fathers, then when admitted, in collective training by instructors appointed by the state.

Regular parades were conducted with these citizen-soldiers to practice formations and tactics.
