because they believed that Spartan boys had to fight like warriors and if they did not be like a warrior you will die
ok fool bye
yes- they went to a type of "agoge" like the spartan boys but they did not focus on military. they did wrestling and gymnastics and various calisthenics
Spartan women - or rather: Spartan adolescent women - participated on an equal footing with Spartan boys in the so-called Gymnopaedia, a festifal where they displayed athletic as well as martial arts, and dancing. Ancient Greek sports were running, swimming, the long jump, discus and javelin throwing.
They began with the usual 3 Rs - reading, riting and rithmetic, then could move on to philosophy/science, literature or arts.
By the fault
one law is you must steal but never get caught or Ill be humiliated and servilely punished Yes, BUT - Spartan boys were never fed enough, the were kept hungry. To satisfy their hunger they had to steal food (money had no real value in Ancient Sparta - being made of iron and dipped in vinegar - so there was no point in stealing money) to eat. If caught, there were punished. BUT NOT FOR STEALING, rather they were punished for BEING CAUGHT - stealth being the ultimate goal of learning how to steal.The life is tough in Sparta because they used to trained the girls in early age to get a better broom.
No, there was no school for spartan boys. From the age of six; legitamate, pure spartan boys started their rigorous training for the army.
Spartan boys were taught to fight, kick, spit, bite, scratch and get into fights with other boys. Athenian boys were learnt to be polite and to be civilised.
Yes.
yes they did
After the Spartan boys successfully complete the "agoge" (the Spartan training for boys) they were elected to a barrack mess, where they were to eat their meals and spend the majority of their time with his messmates. this ensured that when the mess fought together as a unit in battle, the young spartan would be loyal to his mess and possess an "esprit de corp".
Spartan boys did not sleep on mats. They slept on reeds. They had very hard and uncomfortable beds with no sheets or pillows.
Athens was very far from Sparta, there would not be any Spartan boys there.
Spartan boys were trained to be warriors from an early age. This culminated in a test where they were tasked to kill a slave by hand to prove their manhood. At this point they were accepted into the Spartan army.
