Resize text The Battle of Salamis, 19th-century illustration On a late-September day in 480 B.C.E., Greek warships faced an invading Persian armada at the Salamis Straits, a narrow corridor in in the Saronic Gulf, in the most important naval battle of the ancient world. Overwhelmingly outnumbered, the Greeks triumphed through a combination of strategy and deception. More than two millennia after it occurred, the clash between the Greeks and Persians at Salamis remains one of the most tactically brilliant battles ever fought. The Greek victory changed the course of Western history by halting the advance of the Persian Empire and setting the stage for the Golden Age of Athens. Classicist Barry Strauss brings this landmark battle to life. General Information View Common FAQs and Policies about our Online Programs on Zoom.
