I have read the entire battle report written by the only survivor(a messenger) in ancient greek last year. It wasnt too much special for them,the spartan military honor made them stay there. They were helped by some really big military mistakes by the "barbarians". The Greek word for persians is the same as that for barbarians,namely barbaros

I don't think there were survivors.

Are you kidding me? Not to special? This was the first time that the outside world saw Spartans cry! I don't think it was very special either.

At any rate, they still had to stand up to 100,000+ Persians and finished off around 20,000 of them.

I learned about it in World History. A great story of honorable soldiers.
