At age 8 Spartan boys were taken from their mothers to enroll in the agoge, the name for the Spartan training system. The agoge lasted until age 30, when the Spartan became a full soldier. The agoge taught strength, speed, and cunning through vicious and rigorous constant training. Any misconduct resulted in a beating - the offender held onto to bars and was lashed with rods. Throughout all this, the Spartans became men and became bonded closer than brothers to each other. At the end, as a test of manhood, the Spartan was required to sneak out of the agelai, group, and kill a helot, or farmer-slave. If the Spartan was caught, he was beaten viciously, not for killing a helot, but for being caught.

Spartan boys began their military training at the age of seven. They entered the agoge, a rigorous education and training program designed to develop discipline, physical fitness, and combat skills. This training continued until they were around 20 years old, after which they could join the ranks of the Spartan army as full soldiers.
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".
