		One of the Athenian soldiers in the battle was the philosopher Socrates, who was rescued by Alkibiades during the retreat.
		It is thought the incident occurred in part because no "state" shield devices were in use, a practice which seems to have become general by the time of the second battle of Mantineia, fought in 362 BC between the Thebans and the Lakedaimonians (and each side's allies) [1].

		Details of the battle are unclear, but it appears that as the battle wore on, the Athenian superiority in numbers on the wings began to bend back the Spartan flanks, and the presence of the undamaged Athenian center served to further compress the Spartan formation.
