“Once before now I travelled to Phrygia where the vines grow, and there I saw a host of Phrygian men with their quick horses… I too was numbered among them on the day when the Amazons came, women the equal of men.” -Homer, The Iliad

 

 

“There was the origin of the Amazonian invasion of Athens, which would seem to have been no slight or womanish enterprise. For it is impossible that the Amazons should have placed their camp in the very city, and joined battle close by the Pnyx unless, havintg first conquered the country around about, they had thus with impunity advanced to the city.” -Plutarch, Life of Theseus

“That they encamped there is certain, and may be confirmed by the names that the places thereabout yet retain, and the graves and monuments of those that fell in the battle… For indeed we are also told that [a number] of the Amazons [who[ died were buried there in the place that is to this time called Amazoneum.” -Plutarch, Life of Theseus
