+LHudson TV And? These are re-enactors, they are not meant to kill each other, and no these people were not meant to fight like in the movie 300, theya actually fight in formations, which is realistic, this is the kind of phalanx in a smaller scale that would have been deployed into battle back in the day, their op for might have been a bunch of stone throwing monkeys but once again this is NOT meant to be a real battle of thousands of soldiers (believe it or not that's way too expensive) the only real difference is that hoplites back in the day would have had way more discipline but ONCE AGAIN, they are re-enactors, not professional soldiers.

What a sight a true phalanx in ancient times must have been! Great renditions from these reenactors. You can see the diversity and locality of ancient Greek soldiers. I wonder however if their dress was as short as many are wearing it in this reenactement. If I was a soldier back then, I'd want to have protection and warmth extending to my knees.
@georgecockfield4362 жыл бұрын
They did in fact have short dress, the reasons were because it’s hot in Greece and the shield covered down to their knees and they already had greaves covering their shins

@robertstaples98579 жыл бұрын
It was a neat little demonstration If you consider that ordinary citizens don't get to see something like this too often, if at all. If you want it to seem more realistic, look up a picture of modern-day marathon ( or just picture it in your mind), then imagine somewhere around 10,000 Athenians holding off more than a hundred thousand Persian infantry and Immortals. Imagine the lake of blood on the ground, the terrifying howl of angry Greeks, the sound of spears crashing against bronze shields, and the completely unnatural smack of iron entering human flesh and bone. The horror of battle, REAL battle, is a ghostly concept that humans can never comprehend or recreate unless we experience it ourselves, and since ancient battles are ,well, ancient and cannot be experienced or recreated (especially with the number of actors it would take to do so), of course this reenactment is going to seem ridiculous. Sorry to preach, but take it as a preview of the real thing is my point.
@FFcecil19919 жыл бұрын
I think it was between 20 to 30 thousand Persians, including cavalry- which was rendered useless by the terrain and Miltiades' deployment. .. (not 100-thousand. Don't take herodotus as factual/accurate). The Greek "pursuit" after the main battle would have more likely been a March in formation, an hour or two after the Persian retreat.
@robertstaples98579 жыл бұрын
Historians debate the exact Persian number, and yes I exaggerated the number. Realistically your probably right of the fact that the greeks were outnumbered 2 to 1. I probably got lost in the descriptive writing. My mistake

+Robert Staples I've read that the Greeks actually outnumbered the Persians at Marathon, and were mainly using bows. However their arrows couldn't penetrate Greek armor very well, so they were mostly killed retreating since their infantry was so lightly armed.
@FFcecil19919 жыл бұрын
Drkon6 I don't believe that to be true. What's your source? All accounts I've ever seen support that the Athenians were outnumbered and Miltiades used the terrain and deployment to gain the advantage. As for the bows, The Persian Army standard deployment would've had their archers fire followed by their standard infantry + cavalry combo (Which they couldn't do because there was no room for the cavalry to attack the flanks).

Contrary to what people would imagine, ancient Greek re-enactment is almost non-existing, medieval Greek (so-called Byzantine) re-enactment is in the sphere of Sci-Fi. Historical Greek re-enactment is at the level of 1-2% of the Roman re-enactment. For Roman historical representations you have 10s of 1000s of re-enactors, a whole market, they can set up whole camps with tents, ustensils and most often with high high historical accurace as much as it is possible. For ancient Greek re-enactment, and in spite of Greek hoplites actually being more popular than Roman legionaires among the general public including literature and films, there is no such market, a mere handful of re-enactors worldwide - probably you are watching here 90% of the world's hoplite re-enactors, LOL!
@Killzoneguy1174 жыл бұрын
People need to chill. Real hoplites would be required to train regularly per their city state's laws and would have yearly military exercises to maintain operational discipline. An actual phalanx was incredibly difficult to maintain and required skilled officers and experienced soldiers. These guys are re-enactors doing this on their own time out of a passion for history. Unless these guys all work as riot cops, I somehow doubt they would be able to bring the same level of cohesion and organization that an actual hoplite phalanx would have been able to bring
