What are some good books on Greek and Persian wars?
Okay. Can you tell me about the Battle of Marathon that took place during the Greek-Persian wars?
Yes, the Battle of Marathon was fought in 490 BCE between the Greeks and Persians. The Athenians, with the help of the Plataeans, defeated the Persian army. It was a significant victory for the Greeks as it demonstrated their military strength and prevented the Persians from advancing further into Greece.
