Abstract (EN)
Two of the greatest civilizations of the ancient times, Greek and Persian societies were the superpowers of their periods. They gained this title thanks to their warrior features. Both tribes generated a warrior culture by integrating the Notion of fight into every section of their lives. This feature of them included them among the civilizations that are most frequently mentioned and discussed both in the past and at present. The fact that the places where they set up their civilizations had distinct physical features caused these people to have different features in terms of their being warriors, as well as political and cultural areas. While the Greeks concentrated their profession on the heavy but strong phalanx system, Persians concentrated on swift cavalry and light infantry troops. The fast changing conditions of the ancient World put these two warrior civilization face to face. The wars that took place between them portrayed their strengths and weaknesses against one another. As a result, both civilizations were affected from each other in terms of military issues. Greeks realized the superiorty of light cavalry and contributions that infantry troops provided in the battle field and started forming similar troops in their armies. Persians, on the other hand, started recruiting Greek hoplites and forming mercenary troops in theirs.
