HE WAS THE HERO OF THE HEROES
DURING THE SECOND
MESSINIAN WARS.
HIS UNIQUE EXPLOITS SHINE
IN THE HAZE OF MYTH
– BUT HE DENIED THE CROWN!
ARISTOMENES WAS A GENERAL,
HIS KINGDOM WAS THE BATTLEFIELD:
THE MESSINIAN STRUGGLE
FOR LIBERATION
FROM THE SPARTANS.
THAT’S WHY IN THESE LANDS
HIS GLORY STILL SURPASSES
ALL THE KINGS TOGETHER!
IT’S NOT THE OFFICES NOR THE ROYAL LINEAGE, BUT THE DEEDS, THAT MAKE HISTORY SHAKE
For more inspiration: The main street of Kalamata, on the west side of Vasilikon, bears the name of Aristomenes. Aristomenes is also called a village of the Municipality of Messene, in the center of Messinia.
