The Amazons were a tribe of warrior women in Greek mythology.

Influence

In the Valley of King Lelex in Megaris was located the Tomb of the Amazons, dedicated to the Queen of the Amazons, Hippolyta. The tomb was visited by the Spartan mishios Kassandra during the Peloponnesian War.[1]

In the 5th century BCE, a cult rose around the goddess Artemis, consisting of warlike women like the Amazons of legends.[1]
