Best Answer

The Spartans may have disproportionately worshiped Ares over the other Greek gods because he was the God of War, and Spartan lifestyle revolved heavily around warfare and military preparation.

No quite the opposite; Athena started the Athenians. I'm not for sure but I think Ares was the main deity for Sparta. Ares was the patron god, to help the people in war. Artemis was the patron goddess who was mainly associated with the transformation from childhood to adulthood.


What were ancient spartan religious beliefs?

Hi. The Spartans believed in the greek mythology. specially the God Ares. Ares was the god of war an bloodthirst. Ares Was the halfbrother of Athene, and the lover of afrodite. Athene and Ares are natural enemies as the are both gods of war. Ares likes war and chaos, while Athene only wants war in the sake of justice. This conflict between Ares and Athene, was also part of the conflict between Sparta and Athen along with the conflich of oligarki and demokracy. Sorry for the language - it was a quick answer.
