The Battle of Thermopylae changed the course of European history.
The history - behind legend - is the following; The Spartans knew that the Battle of Thermopylae would be lost for sure. That's why they really did not send any army. In order not to offend the other Greeks, they sent only King Leonidas with the royal guard (300 men). And that was not the real royal guard. They were all middle-aged men who left behind them at least one son as a soldier. This is the greatness of their sacrifice. They went there by knowing that everyone would die.
The epigram tells it all.
Go tell the Spartans, passer-by, that here, obedient to their laws, we lie.
Η μάχη των Θερμοπυλών άλλαξε την πορεία της ευρωπαϊκής ιστορίας.
Η ιστορία - πέρα απ’ το θρύλο - είναι η εξής: Οι Σπαρτιάτες ήξεραν ότι η μάχη στις Θερμοπύλες ήταν χαμένη υπόθεση. Γι’ αυτό δεν έστειλαν στρατό. Για να μην προσβάλουν τους άλλους Έλληνες έστειλαν μόνο το βασιλιά Λεωνίδα με τη βασιλική φρουρά (300 άνδρες). Και δεν ήταν η πραγματική βασιλική φρουρά. Ήταν όλοι μεσήλικες άνδρες που άφηναν πίσω τουλάχιστον ένα γιο στρατιώτη. Αυτό είναι το μεγαλείο της θυσίας τους. Ξεκίνησαν ξέροντας ότι όλοι θα πεθάνουν.
La Batalla de las Termópilas cambió el curso de la historia europea.
La historia, detrás de la leyenda, es la siguiente. Los Espartanos sabían que la Batalla de las Termópilas se perdería con seguridad. Es por eso que realmente no enviaron ningún ejército. Para no ofender a los otros griegos, enviaron solo al rey Leonidas con la guardia real (300 hombres). Y esa no era la verdadera guardia real. Eran todos hombres de mediana edad que dejaron al menos a un hijo como soldado. Esta es la grandeza de su sacrificio. Fueron allí sabiendo que todos morirían.
El epigrama lo dice todo.
Ve y cuéntales a los espartanos, paseantes, que aquí, obedientes a sus leyes, mentimos.

This is a place where my son and I wish to travel to together and stand at the tablet and just be there. We find it so fitting that all that was done to mark the bravery of these men is a simple unadorned tablet. Nothing could be so Spartan as that. We always plan our trip to Greece, someday soon we will take it.

what i like about this it is so simple and NOT purposely made extravagant (you just KNOW russia or china would blow this statue up to the height of a skyscraper like that of mother russia or one of the various chinese ccp leaders). very elegant, understated because the actions of those who gave their lives speak louder than what we see and can imagine.

Does anyone have a translation for all of the inscriptions on the bottom of the monument. I could find the "Go tell the Spartans..." but none of the other ones.

wasn't there like 3000 spartans, and a bunch more from other groups? the author admitted that he removed one 0 to dramatize story, didn't he? i wish he didn't do that, though. since it was turned into a movie, the majority believes that there really is only 300, even if he admitted his fabrication. it would still be amazing anyway.
