	Battles: Battle of Coronea :: 0 A.D. :: Wildfire Games
		The battle of Coronea was a battle of the 4th Century B.C. This battle, waged at the height of Spartan supremacy in Greece, was a bloody victory of Spartan arms over the allies who frequently set out to oppose her.
		The battle line for the allies was arrayed thus: The Thebans put themselves in position on the right flank, opposite the Spartan left, the Athenians stood next to them, followed by the Locrians, Corinthians, Euboeans, Acarnanians, and lastly the Argives on the allied left opposite the Spartan right.
		In the total view of the Corinthian War (which ended when Persia changed sides and supported Sparta in 387) Coronea was a technical victory for Sparta, and assured the dominance of Sparta on land for the majority of the war.

	Xenophon's World - The World and I Magazine
		It is believed that he fought at the battle of Arginusae (406), the last naval victory of the Athenians, after which the successful generals were tried for having abandoned, because of a storm, sailors from waterlogged and lost ships.
		Socrates was serving at the trial as one of the six presiding officers of the Assembly (having been chose by lot), and he claimed that he did not know how to put the vote, because contrary to law, the generals were being tried as a body instead of singly.
		Through all the wars, battles, alliances, and politics, though all the many personal relationships with people from different cities and different cultures, through all the changing fortunes and circumstances, it is remarkable how Xenophon preserved a beauty of soul that commended itself to almost all who knew him.

		In the battle of Cunaxa (401 BCE.) Cyrus lost his life, his barbarian troops were dispersed, and the Greeks were left alone on the wide plains between the Tigris and the Euphrates.
		It seems that he went to Sparta with Agesilaus after the battle of Coronea, and soon after he settled at Scillus in Elis, not far from Olympia, a spot of which he has given a description in the Anabasis.
		The skirmishes of the retreating Greeks with their enemies, and the battles with some of the barbarian tribes, are not such events as elevate the work to the character of a military history.

		For on his departure, Melissus, the son of Ithagenes, a philosopher, being at that time the general in Samos, despising either the small number of the ships that were left or the inexperience of the commanders, prevailed with the citizens to attack the Athenians.
		And the Samians having won the battle, and taken several of the men prisoners, and disabled several of the ships, were masters of the sea, and brought into port all necessaries they wanted for the war, which they had not before.

		Thus these soldiers, who had battled in the re-conquest of Spain (over the Moors) were mercenary soldiers, thus available to the highest bidder.
		The Romans probably occupied both that height and the hill of KrevasarГЎ, as in that position they were not only masters of any sources of water there may be at the foot of those heights, but were near the Cephissus, their proximity to which is evident from what follows.
		Thus we have almost the same ending in every case, one army was heavily outnumbered, the battle was one sided, it turned into a rout, and in two of the three cases it was reported that women and children were captured.

		His father, Clinias, having fitted out a galley at his own expense, gained great honour in the sea-fight at Artemisium, and was afterwards slain in the battle of Coronea, fighting against the Boeotians.
		Once there happened a sharp skirmish, in which they both behaved with signal bravery; but Alcibiades receiving a wound, Socrates threw himself before him to defend him, and beyond any question saved him and his arms from the enemy, and so in all justice might have challenged the prize of valour.
		After this battle at Mantinea, the select thousand of the army of the Argives attempted to overthrow the government of the people in Argos, and make themselves masters of the city; and the Lacedaemonians came to their aid and abolished the democracy.
