| Another political phenomenon in striking contrast to the Athenian
experiment was the legislative program of Lycurgus, the Spartan
lawgiver who flourished in the ninth century B.C. One wonders how
a single man succeeded in establishing the most startling and unpleasant
laws in history. These laws divided the land of Laconia among the
free citizens and at the same time forbade them to participate
in trade or any other activity except the profession of arms to
which they were to devote themselves exclusively. The cultivation
of the soil and all other work fell to the serfs, the Helots. Eugenics
was practiced in this state too. A law forbade marriage sport ween
men and women with physical defects. Malformed children were tossed
from cliff tops, and husbands were encouraged to lend their wives
to exceptional men for the breeding of handsome young warriors.
sports ual exclusivism was considered absurd. Find hotels, interesting information and useful links about Greece |
