Best Answer

There were no 'major warriors'. This was a battle of armies. Do you want commanders or what?

The Athenian side was commanded by ten tribal generals who took command in turn for a day each. The overall commander was the polemarch Callimachus. On the day of the battle it was the turn of Miltiades to command.

The Persian commander was the Mede Datis with his deputy the Persian Artaphernes.
