Original Note:
Lycurgus wasn't Sparta Founder, he was a lawgiver. There's no archeologic evidence of his existence. Is belief that he lived early as century 10th or late 6th BC. The story about been attacked and then invite the aggressor to dinner, was introduced by Plutarch who wrote in 1BC https://www.thoughtco.com/lycurgus-lawgiver-of-sparta-112759
