More notes on Ancient Greece

Today in class we reviewed over the slideshow and took more notes on Ancient Greece. We will also have a test on Thursday. Here are some notes I took in class. Clash of Tyrants: Hippias- tyrant, ruled 527 to 510 BCE, his brother was murdered, then his ruling became harsh out of anger. He would put people and their whole family to death if they did something against him or even thought they killed his brother. Eventually, he was expelled from Athens (being ostracized).  In revenge, he worked with Persian king Darius I, helping them invade Marathon. Next in LIne: with Hippias gone, Isagoras and Cleisthenes (all these people were aristocrats) engaged in power struggles. Isagoras - support from fellow aristocrats, plus Sparta. Cleisthenes - support from the majority of Athens. Isagoras wins (Not for long): becomes archon eponymous (tyrant). Ostracizes Cleisthenes ( his supporters revolt against his tyranny. They trap him on an acropolis for two days - on the third day he fled and banished 508 BCE.
