Descriptionof Marathon und Salamis
Manufacturer

The Persian Wars are one of the most famous and momentous events of antiquity, and it is no coincidence that they have long been one of the most frequently studied topics in ancient history. Even after 2,500 years, they still exert a great fascination on everyday culture, so much so that Hollywood has even staged the battles of Thermopylae and Salamis in the blockbusters 300 and 300: Rise of an Empire in visually stunning fashion. It is striking that the question of the causes of the Persian defeat has not yet been satisfactorily answered by researchers. Until now, the superiority of the Greek hoplites over the Persian foot soldiers has been blamed for the Persian defeat. However, this is a factor that cannot have played a role in the defeat of the Persians in the naval battle of Salamis. In his work, the author therefore examines the influences and factors that led to the two most significant battles of the Persian Wars, Marathon and Salamis, and then uses autopsy to work out how the Greeks were able to inflict such a decisive defeat on the Persian Empire in each of the two battles.
