The experience of warfare shaped soldiers and their families in the ancient world. Drawing partly on modern studies of battle `syndromes', this collection of essays examines this important phenomenon. Contributions include: Warrior Mentality in Homer (Hans van Wees) ; Hoplite Warfare in Ancient Greece (Stephen Mitchell) ; Homosexuality and Warfare in Ancient Greece (Daniel Ogden) ; The Moulding of Macedon's Army (Alan Lloyd) ; Morale and the Roman Experience of Battle (A. D. Lee) ; The Roman Army and Morality in War (Catherine Gilliver) ; Battle in Ancient Egypt: the Triumph of Horus or the Cutting Edge of the Temple Economy (Ian Shaw).
