The Hoplite and the nature of the adjective hoplitikós: military terminology in Classical Greece
Abstract The terms employed by modern historians to denote ancient military realities are actually a mixture of ancient concepts and modern meanings, which very often leads to confusion. This is the case of the term «hoplite». Through the analysis of the adjective hoplitikós we can, first, try to approach to the real meaning of the term «hoplite», and secondly, we can also dicover how ancient terms and their uses in the sources are indeed secondary for modern scholarship's choices of vocabulary.
