Quote:Again, you have not explained the OP... Please do. What is it you want to discuss. I find a discussion on the presence and utilization of the 10,000 very interesting and I urge you to make a new thread where we can discuss it in length if that is what you want. But regarding THIS thread, say what your point is.
If your point is that "it is accepted by most historians that the Greeks more often than not defeated far superior numbers, and that they could only lose through treachery and swarming." then I first have to disagree that most historians accept this position and, as I understand you do too, I also personally disagree with those voicing it. Was this your point? Then we all agree here that this was not the case.
Do strike up a discussion on the 10,000. It will be very interesting to see where all our opinions lie regarding the various aspects of the story.
Hmm... So we agree. If that is so, there is to discuss relevant to this thread. I could make a thread about the revolt of Cyrus the younger, and I will when I have time - possibly tomorrow.
