About this listen

 BATTLE BONED Hi and welcome to my ultimate guide to all things ancient warfare. I present a new raw take on the "history podcast." Sprinkle in a little dark humor, mixed it with gritty storytelling, and layer it with analysis to regale famous and not-so-famous ancient battles. Beginning with Classical Antiquity, I take a journey through the battles that shaped and reshaped the Western World.2023 World

    This is a quick and dirty introduction to the podcast, thanks for listening! I will try to have at least one episode published a week. As an FYI, my podcast will be somewhat explicit and not family-friendly. I hope you will stick around to listen to all the great content I will produce over the course of this show. Thank you again!

    Battle of Hysiae

    In episode 2, I begin the journey of the development of the phalanx or "log" type warfare first referenced by Homer, where the ancient Greeks are beginning to learn that tactics beyond raiding and small battles need more substantial development. 

    Not many sources exist to vehemently confirm this battle took place, but I'd like to think it could seriously have happened to some extent, at least some parts of the mythical battle. I walk through how Sparta lost to Argos in 670-669BCE inside the city of Hysiae.
