What is the meaning of perioki in ancient Greece?
perioki means neighbors in ancient Sparta
Who built spartan weapons?
Spartan weapons were most likely created by the Perioki - the Spartan commoners. They handled all the commerce for the city, such as trade, fishing, blacksmithing etc. This enabled the Spartiates (full-citizens) could focus on their training.
Why don't spartens trade?
The spartans did trade. The middle class of Sparta - the Perioki - were responsible for all the city's commerce, such as trade, fishing and blacksmithing. It was only the Spartan full-citizens - the Spartiates - who were not allowed any contact with outside cities because it was afraid that they would get 'ideas'. The Spartiates were set very deeply in their traditions and could not afford any distracting ideas.
What jobs did ancient Sparta people have?
The ancient Spartans did not work, they got the helots to do all the work for them. Every spartan was moist and juicy and was awarded a plot of land and the helots would work it. Thus at the end of the year a Spartan would get a fixed amount and the helot would be given the rest.The Spartan city consisted of the Spartiates (full-citizens), the Perioki (the commoners) and the Helots (the slaves):Spartiate - men consistently trained for war. women maintained their physical fitness and managed the helots and land.Perioki - they were in charge of the city's commerce.
