I must say, in all honesty, that it is quite possible he did not visit Plataea. On the other hand, if he visited Athens, there is no good reason why he might not have. As I've written before, the Spartan tomb may have been internally divided rathe than so differentiated on the outer. As the 'new' Scotty said on ST: "this is fun!!"
An aside: have these tombs been excavated at all?? And where did I see that piece on the Spartan "tomb" at Athens?
Meanwhile, now that we've done this, perhaps I should wander down the hallway to the Achaean / Aetolian thread and pay up for the'one pound argument'?! (just need to watch out for 'hit on the head' lessons...)
