Daily Life in Sparta

     Unlike the other city-states women had many more privelages/rights. It was this way because all the men were at war, away, or training. One thing Spartans mainly believed in was that military power was the way tho provide security for the people.  Spartan women got a better education and were more physically fit than women of other city-states because they had to do the manual laber and run things around Sparta.  The women of sparta thought spinnig thread and weaving to be tasks of the slaves.As a part of the men's training, the boys ran, jumped, threw javelins to increase their strength, and learned to endure hardships they would often face as soldiers. Boys ages 7-12 would leave home to get a basic education. At age 13-18 developed physical skills through exercise. From ages 19-20 men learned how to fight as part of the army. From the ages of 21-30 soldiers would begin to join the army. At age 30, the men could participate in the army and move back home.
