It depends on the city and time. In Ancient Sparta, a war-based community, boys were trained as soldiers as soon they could walk, and it was a great honor and duty to become a great soldier. War was often for Sparta and training was intense and painful. Death in battle was seen as a great honor. In Ancient Athens, a much more art-based culture, war was still common. The battle of Marathon, Thermopylae and Salamis between Persia, Sparta and Athens are some famous battles. Ancient Mycenae and Troy fought the famous Trojan War.
