| adam_text | A Greek Army on the March is a social and cultural history of the Cyreans,
the classical Greek mercenary soldiers depicted in Xenophon s Anabasis.
While historians have traditionally viewed the Cyrean army as a single
political community, this book reveals that the soldiers lives were largely
defined by a pair of smaller social communities: the formal unit
organization of the
lochos
( company ) and the informal comradeship of
the suskenia ( mess group ). Drawing on an extensive array of ancient
literary and archaeological evidence, along with perspectives from
military sociology and modern war studies, the book provides a
comprehensive portrait of the Cyreans experience, ft examines the
environmental conditions of the campaign, ethnic and economic relations
amongst the soldiers, the role of camp followers, and the practicalities of
daily survival on the march. Anyone interested in ancient Greek warfare
or in Xenophon s Anabasis will want to read this book.
