Talk:Anabasis (Xenophon)

Map

The map shows the Persian Empire in the borders as of 490 BC (as indicated in the map). This is quite confusing, since the borders are quite different from those in 401 BC (year of the anabasis). Egypt and Eastern Thrace were not a part of Persia in 401. Perhaps someone could draw the anabasis route into a more appropriate map? --78.54.20.62 (talk) 19:37, 30 August 2008 (UTC)

Journey to the Center of the Earth

This does contain the phrase "Thalatta! thalatta!" the sea! the sea!", but only in one of the English translations (the line was inserted by the translator, along with a reference to Euclid, a bit of casual racism and some creationism).

when?

What time period does the Anabasis cover? OK 401 BCE, but when did the survivors get home? 100.15.127.199 (talk) 16:54, 8 May 2021 (UTC)

Areas of Improvement?

Hello fellow classicists, historians, and enthusiasts! For my class I will be editing and improving upon this page. Are there any areas you folks who have been around awhile would like to see bolstered? I may be able to get my hands on sources not otherwise easily accessible. Thank you! --Geisslp (talk) 19:22, 11 April 2023 (UTC)
