Transcript

00:00Ancient Greece is famous for its epic battles and legendary heroes.

00:09Stories which have defined our ideas of courage and heroism.

00:15Yet an army that rose above all others remains unknown.

00:21What made it unique was that it consisted of 150 male couples.

00:27The sacred band was formed on the principle of erotic love between male partners.

00:35The notion of eros being applied outside the bedroom, if I can put it that way, is not at all strange.

00:44And it's a very powerful binding force.

00:47The notion that we can look back to antiquity, to people who were like us thousands of years ago,

01:11who fought, who loved, who were noble, I think that is a source of strength and comfort,

01:19particularly given the history of oppression that gay people have lived through.

01:23But how could an army of male lovers have existed in ancient times?

01:31And why have modern societies come to believe that homosexuals are not fit to serve in the military?

01:37An excavation diary and a lost skeleton in Athens tell the story of the rise and fall of the sacred band.

01:49A story of 300 men, which reshapes our understanding of war and love.
