This war between Messenia and Sparta was 743-724 BCE.
It was an extension of the wars between the Achaeans who were the existing inhabitants and the incoming Dorians who were extending their grip on the Peloponnesian peninsula.
Dorian Sparta won and gained control of the territory of the southern Peloponnese. The Messenians either left the area or became serfs of the Spartans. This serf (helot) population allowed the Spartans to concentrate on military activity, supported by the labour of the helots.
