Correct response: What is the Battle of Marathon?
More information about Final Jeopardy:
The famous messenger was Pheidippides, who was sent from Athens to Sparta to ask for assistance in the battle against the Persian army. Unfortunately for Athens, Sparta was in the middle of a religious festival and was unable to provide aid. However, the Spartan assistance ended up not being required, as the Athenians won a resounding victory, turning the tide in the Greco-Persian Wars.
According to legend, Pheidippides ran from Marathon to Athens following the battle, announced victory, and died of exhaustion. However, Herodotus does not mention this in his own story of the battle; the 1879 Robert Browning poem Pheidippides became part of Victorian-era popular culture and has very likely perpetuated this legend. Herodotus wrote that the full Athenian army marched quickly back to Athens following the battle, fearing a naval raid, whereas Plutarch (quoting from Heraclides Ponticus) mentions Thersiplus of Erchius as the post-battle Marathon-to-Athens messenger.
Interestingly, the vast majority of hits in J! Archive of the year “490 B.C.” is a reference to the Battle of Marathon, to the point where I would say it is Pavlovian.

Andy’s Thoughts:
- Even had Anneke elected to stand pat at $11,400, that score would only be 48.158% to advance out of third place from this game. What an unlucky time to draw a blank in Final Jeopardy!, though.
I am OK with Alex asking Anneke to “be more specific” on TO THE STARS $2000 as in French the territory is named Guyane.
