In this episode, Lucas and Luna explore the dramatic story of the Spartan king Demaratus, who fled to Persia and became an advisor to Xerxes during the Greco-Persian Wars. They examine his conflict with co-king Cleomenes I, his exile to Asia, and his controversial role at the Battle of Thermopylae, including the disputed warning he may have sent to the Greeks. Drawing from Herodotus, the conversation also touches on Spartan royal succession, dual kingship, and the modern film '300'. A fascinating look at a figure caught between two worlds. #Sparta #Athens #Demaratus #PersianWars #Thermopylae #Herodotus #CleomenesI #Xerxes #DualKingship #AncientGreece #FexingoHistory #History #GrecoPersianWars #Exile #Defection #Leonidas #SpartanKings #300 Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
