Love the Anabasis and admire Xenophon. His name makes me wonder if he murdered (xenos) the Greek language (sound). I love how one of his fellow chieftans sneezed during one of their last battle planning meetings where he once again emerged as the de-facto general, and the sneeze was taken as an omen of the ‘gods’ communicating their blessing.
