War Art 16: Ancient Greek Warfare

We've approached wars and the way they are depicted by history and world artists by showing century-long eras, continental struggles, and the larger world wars. Now we want to continue the series by getting closer to individual battles, beginning with the Greek and Persian battles of ancient times. The first is an overview, and glance at Greek military strategy, the phalanx, and the hoplite.
