Abstract

This article reviews the historical accuracy of the account of the Spartan wedding ceremony in Plutarch's Vita Lycurgi. It surveys the texts that are usually quoted in support of Plutarch's account and argues that none offers a relevant parallel. It also suggests a different kind of wedding ceremony for Archaic and Classical Sparta.
