h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Just dropping a note so you can add something I forgot about in my entry in 'Ancient Sparta'. I think this would be best inserted as a new paragraph at beginning of 'The Spartan Myth'.

"Sparta was one of the few cities of Greece not to be walled. Walls, like archers, were considered effeminate by the Spartans; men were the preferred means of defence. It is this attitude that has become romanticised over the years (though the more practical reason for having no walls could have been that any encircling rampart would separate the fifth constituent village of Amyclae from the rest of the city)."

I'll see what I can do

Thanks . I'd been thinking about whether it was necessary to include a bit about the city having no walls when the it was picked from PR. I think that it's an important enough part of the city's image and culture to be included.
