By land and by sea, they conducted raids, ambushes, battles and sieges; they embarked on campaigns of intimidation, conquest and annihilation; they fought against fellow Greeks and non-Greeks.Drawing on a wealth of literary, epigraphic and archaeological material, this wide-ranging synthesis looks at the practicalities of Greek warfare and its wider social ramifications. Alongside discussions of the nature and role of battle, logistics, strategy, and equipment are examinations of other fundamentals of war: religious and economic factors. 606 $aMilitary art and science$zGreece$xHistory$yTo 500 606 $aArmies$zGreece 607 $aGreece$xHistory, Military 610 $aambushes. 610 $aancient Greeks. 610 $aannihilation. 610 $abattles. 610 $aconquest. 610 $aintimidation. 610 $amilitarism. 610 $araids. 610 $asieges. 610 $awar. 615 0$aMilitary art and science$xHistory 615 0$aArmies 676 $a355.020938 700 $aRawlings$b Louis$01677546 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910808314603321 996 $aThe ancient Greeks at war$94044521 997 $aUNINA
