Spartan soldiers, known as hoplites, lived in barracks known as "agoge," which were part of the rigorous military training system that all male Spartans underwent from a young age. The agoge emphasized discipline, endurance, and communal living, fostering a strong sense of camaraderie among the soldiers. While they were trained to be fierce warriors, their living conditions were austere, reflecting the Spartan values of simplicity and resilience. This communal lifestyle was essential in preparing them for battle and instilling a strong sense of loyalty to the state.
