Herodotus - A Movie Review

Herodotus says that darius and his compatriots go to a fortress where the false king is staying. They get past the guards because of their lofty status in the regime, right? This is the oligarchy walking in. And again, when you're reading herodotus at a moment like this, try to remember that a lot of historians think he was performing this lie for an audience. If that's the case, this is a herodotan action scene.
