Which account of Thermopylae in 480 BCE avoids the common error about its defenders?

  1. Leonidas and allied Greeks fought a losing rearguard actionRespuesta correcta
  2. Only three hundred Greeks fought and won the final battle
  3. The Greek defenders won a decisive final victory
  4. The three hundred Spartans fought without Greek allies

Explicación

Leonidas and three hundred Spartan hoplites formed part of a broader Greek allied rearguard that was ultimately defeated. Saying that the Spartans fought entirely alone erases the other Greeks, while calling the battle a final Greek victory reverses its outcome.
