Very interesting, according to Nick the Spartan shoes were crimson red as well right? At least I can remember him saying something like that.
If the Spartans went over to sandals then it obviously had its used, which anything they choose for probably has. :mrgreen:
Edit: And in his book The Spartan Army, he says the Spartan military training started at 5 when the child became a boy and that a Spartan was seen as an adult at the age of 18. Weren't these ages 7 and 20? Or is Nick Sekunda right in his ages? :|
