Thucydides - History of the Peloponnesian War (in Ancient Greek) - Thuc. 1.1, Thuc. 1.2.1-2

The beginning of the History of the Peloponnesian War by the ancient Athenian historian Thucydides, recited in Ancient Greek pronunciation. Two or three accents are wrong but I'm a little out of practice.

Thucydides has been one of my (healthy) obsessions since I was 14, so this is some sort of tribute to one of the most important historians of the Western world.
