What an amazing fight between two of the nicest people I know! Till has his own website that we would really appreciate if you check out! www.linothorax.de/
As a US Civil War Reenactor and former medieval reenactor, you guys are AWESOME. Excellent work, literally on par with the trireme Olympias. You should be proud of yourselves. I would be.
Thanks so much!! That truly means a lot!
@@LeonidasSparta-Fun-History Maybe next year, you guys can do Salamis! 🤣
@@carlhicksjr8401 it seems this event will be more common (the last one was Marathon 2015) but Plataea 2024 is now confirmed! Will be a different event but i am curious as to what it will be, as these events were anniversaries, sadly thermopylae was missed due to the pandemic.
This comment aged like good wine! Adam and I towed Olympias this year!
Wow. Being dressed as the people that died there must have felt eerie but awesome!
It was such an honour, and at the same time, almost unbelievable that we were where they were 2500 years ago. We walked the same fields they did 2500 years ago, we fought each other the same place they did 2500 years ago.... it is surreal
When you think it's some Auloi playing on the background but it's a drone.
Can i have a link to the music please? It sounds incredible
Its called Dance of the Spartans here on youtube
0:12 what a strange picture, like a space time mixup
More of these two and it'll be the battle of Leuctra
Managed ti visit Leuctra whilst at Plataea, and my gosh, talk about an unchanged battlefield. The whole landscape is basically the same as when the ancients fought there. An amazing sight!
With the same result;)
Awesome video ancient greek history has aways been my favourite history
Thanks so much! Same with me, love it!
Very interesting display.
Thank you.
thanks for watching!
Hey hey, it's my boy Farya Faraji's music playing!
Yessir!
The thumbnail is awesome btw.
These lads need greaves!
Yes, might be helpful! One of them didnt so there was a gentleman's agreement! Although, historically many hoplites wouldn't have been able to afford them
@@LeonidasSparta-Fun-HistoryI thought greaves were the next thing required after a helmet, at least by the time of the Theban hegemony?
@@kongming66 it would depend on what the individual chose to purchase. Helmet and greaves do appear to be common first pieces, as the shield defends much of ths body, but there were no rules on what one had to buy in order. In this case, one of the fighters did not have greaves so in order to make it a fair fight the other decided not to wear his :)
from where do you get your armor and helmets cause i really want to get one but not for over 50 euros and also i want it to be a little bit good at least cause i am in medieval sports just starting
Many different places. Some is hand made. Sorry to say but a good reproduction cannot be found for under 50 euros. You can check out my hoplite reenactment guid series
@@LeonidasSparta-Fun-History okay
Good job
Where is Paul bardunias.
I believe you can see him in the red chiton the other side of the main camera, let me check!
Actually, at the very start of the video he is stood next to the guy in the white tunic
@@LeonidasSparta-Fun-History haha ok, I just want to say he is a very nice guy
Ok I spotted him now
when are you posting the battle of plaeta reinactment
I have been already
@@LeonidasSparta-Fun-History no like reenacting the actual battle when did that happen
@@dogeguy7646 the Athens vs Thebes video is a reenactment of one of the conflicts in the battle of plataea, and the final spartan position is the other. As our Persian group couldn't attend, we could only really re-create the athenians vs thebans clash. For the Spartans clash against the immortals we used our audience
@@LeonidasSparta-Fun-History did the perisans get monkey pox
@@dogeguy7646 lol thankfully not. They were sadly denied entry into Greece
Jaime ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
we love Paul Bardunias!
We're just boys and girls in tights.
If they are accurate in wearing foot wear then likely Alexander was not a barefoot army like we are told.
We do see footwear in vase art, and the ground is scattered in little thorns, so it would make sence the wear them
Where are you?
This was still at Plataea. You can see me standing in the back in armour in the first camera angle at the start.
That's a ptolematic hoplite
Shouldn’t they be wearing grooves on shins
Greaves werent a uniform armour part fir greeks
@@LeonidasSparta-Fun-History wouldn’t it depend on the city state? For example Macedonia had different spears.
The sarissae you are talking about didn't show up until more than 100 years later and especially pre Peloponnesian War Hoplite kits were anything but uniform. Since one opponent did not have greaves at hand, the other went greaveless too for fair game. I think the deep love and respect between the contestants is visible:)
@@Waelser93 the man hinself graces us with his presents! Lovely fight
🙂
in real life thebans ashamed the mighty spartans when sacred band a special theban hoplite unit out of homosekual partners DESTROEYD the spartans during battle....
I believe you are talking about Leuctra. Actually did a documentary on that on the channel!
of course@@LeonidasSparta-Fun-History
