Who is your favourite Greek warrior?

There's another theory that Amompharetos simply misunderstood or was not well informed of the actual battle plan and thus jeopardized the whole operation.

The idea was that the Greeks wanted to lure the Persians out of their defensive positions and to (as a second objective) shorten their supply lines that were suffering from Persian cavalry attacks. Therefore they decided to retreat to a secondary position with the hope that the Persians would think that they retreat and would attack to completely route the Greeks. Amompharetos refused to retreat his unit in what he saw as a cowardly retreat and when morning came the Persians saw the Greeks retreat and Amompharetos small Spartan unit staying alone in the middle of the field. They attacked, the Spartans held but with losses and soon the other Greeks entered the battle to support Amompharetos unit.

The rest in well known, the Persians were defeated. It's interesting to point out that the worst losses of the Greeks came not from the Persians but from their Theban (mainly) and Macedonian allies. No wonder no one held the Thebans in much esteem afterwards...

If I am allowed to add half-greeks I would say my favorite warrior is Sultan Selim I. Sultan Selim's mother was a Byzantine Princess from Trabizond.  The Sultan conquered Arabia and under him the Ottoman Empire entered the period of its greatest power.
