Explanation
Spartan boys entered the agoge, a state-run military training program, at about age seven. Spartan girls also received education and physical training, which was unusual in ancient Greece. Artemis, especially in her local form Artemis Orthia, was an important goddess in Sparta. Art, music, and poetry were not the main occupations, and Sparta’s land army—not its navy—was its most important military force.
