Thermopylae (Thermopiles) is world-famous for the battle where 300 Spartans, led by King Leonidas, made their famous stand against the Persian invaders led by the Great King Xerxes in August 480 BC.  Thermopylae translated to English means ‘hot gates’ which is related to the nearby hot sulphur springs.
