Document Summary

Xenophon is our best source for spartan upbringing, he speaks about the agoge, so our only source on infanticide is plutarch really. We are looking for the archeological sites that can serve as the apothetai or the commonly confused related site of the. Apothetai is a place set apart for a purpose, it is not a dumping ground. Plutarch uses the adjective which makes a connection to the pit in. Athens, the barathron, though he never says that it is one. Plutarch says that they are sent away rather than being slung which makes tom. It seems that the spartans typically buried their dead in the taygetos in caves. The spartan king agesilaus c. 445 - 359 bce who was a eurypontid king for 40 years was lame since birth. He was likely the older brother but is passed over for his young brother king agis who rules instead because agesilaus is lame.
