Spartan boys were given simple bedding made of reeds or rushes to sleep on. This austere arrangement reflected the Spartan emphasis on discipline and resilience, as they were trained from a young age to endure discomfort and hardship. The minimalistic sleeping conditions were part of their broader education aimed at preparing them for military life and fostering a sense of toughness and self-reliance.
