I remember Thucydides gave a very detailed account of the symptoms of the plague. He should have known as he contracted it.

I recall reading somewhere that his description did not match perfectly, any disease, although I think Typhoid would have been the best guess as it is common in such situations with large numbers of people crowded together with poor sanitation.

Thanks for the ping. A lot of people don't know that Sparta won.
