Plataea
Plataea (Ancient Greek: Πλάταια) () or Plataeae was an ancient Greek city-state situated in Boeotia near the frontier with Attica at the foot of Mt. Cithaeron, between the mountain and the river Asopus, which divided its territory from that of Thebes. Its inhabitants were known as the Plataeans.
It was the location of the Battle of Plataea in 479 BC, in which an alliance of Greek city-states defeated the Persians.
