Quote:The archaological evidence supports the last stand story. People are still discovering arrow heads and tourists got into trouble for trying to get a "lucky find" as souvenir. The "Persian arrows obscurring the sun" are still found.I have seen photos of them; and I think they are indeed of the same type as the arrowheads I've seen in Persepolis.
But where are they now? I remember a little building at Thermopylae that was said to contain an exposition, but the two times I went there, it was closed.
