Quoted text:

When the Spartans went to war, says Athenaeus (XIV.631), their soldiers sang marching songs as they marched in time to the music.

Can you help us confirm and cite Athenaeus (is XIV.631 correct, or is it 6–31?)? And can you identify a full citation to link to?

Is it one of these:

  1. Source 1
  2. Or: Source 2
  3. Or (most likely?): Source 3
