The Greek force at the Thermopylae was a blocking force to hold up the Persian army and so provoke a sea battle in the strait beside it, in an attempt by the Greeks to destroy the Persian fleet. The Greeks lost, and with the blocking force at Thermopylae no longer of use, it was withdrawn. The Spartan and Thespian contingents remained behind to cover the withdrawal and were killed.
