Macaulay as found on Project Gutenberg; “Sparta: Reconstructing History from Secrecy, Lies and Myth.” by Anton Powell from A Companion to Sparta; Pausanias’ Description of Greece translated by WHS Jones; Plutarch’s Life of Lykourgos, translated by Bernadotte Perrin; upcoming conversation episodes also contributed to sourcing.
