<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Gam3rBlake, post: 8204333, member: 115909&quot;]According to the Wikipedia article on Spartan black soup every Spartan paid ten obols a month to their unit in order to buy the raw ingredients for black soup which they would gather and eat together once a month.</p><p><br /></p><p>So they must have had money if they paid in obols.</p><p><br /></p><p>They couldn’t be iron obols because they would be paying for someone’s animal to slaughter and they would need fair compensation. 10 iron obols is definitely not enough to replace a pig. 10 silver obols would. At least a piglet. Which is what they bought.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1438107[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
