When was the town or city state of Sparta founded?

It existed in Mycenean times already and is a key player mentioned in the Iliad, but the Dorian conquerors who founded what we think of as "Spartan culture" arrived probably in the 11th century. Briangotts (Talk) (Contrib) 17:58, 8 November 2006 (UTC)
