krypteia 58
From the Greek kryptos , hidden , hidden . Proof of Spartan military education as a baptism of blood. Future soldiers were to survive in the field barefoot, without shelter, without food and only with a dagger. Hidden by day, at night they raided the farms of the Ilotas whom they stole and murdered with the acquiescence of the Ephors who declared a sacred war.
