[Giannis K. Hoplite]

The colours would be all kinds of shades of blue,yellow(though not considered very manly in Athens),green,red,purple,brown etc. Emroidery could be a stipe of different colour,even tyrian purple for the wealthy. Some times they had decoration all over the cloth, like little stars,dots, combinations of the two etc. These for the even more wealthy.
Of course white cloth would also be used. It was used by priests and as sort of formal religious colour,but certainly not considered a "sacred" colour.
