review
In the beginning of class we talked about tsunamis.
Tyranny
514 BC
Hippias's brother was murdered
He knew aristocrats were the ones most dangerous
and he was right
Clithenese (Spellfail) wanted power from Hippias
Once every three years men would come to compete with athletic skills
this was ancient Olympic games.
Greeks found civilized way to show heroic ideal
shared wife with spartan kingdom
Dictator ruled with Spartans
revolution
No possibility for aristocrats
design revolutionary governmental system for revolutionary political system
Citizens could stand and address fellow citizens
Agora
Every nine days vote on every issue
from raising taxes to building roads
to price of figs to declaration of war
Ordinary people could be her,oes in politics
System of government that would transform
Pheideppedes Ran a marathon
not for glory but survival
About to be conquered by mighty Persian empire
dodging spears from men in front and men behind
All be aware of was you needed to keep stabbing and keep to your feet
Never have imagined Greeks won glorious victory
Slaughtered 6000 Persians in one day
Themistosles
Clear he didn't come from land
stories told he was touchy that he wasn't born an aristocrat
