After the battle, the two surviving Argives left the field to report their victory.

Orthyades, on the other hand, remained and looted the bodies of the fallen Argives (as was customary).

The disagreement resulted in general fighting between the armies and in which the Spartans were the victors.

Othryades, ashamed to return to Sparta as the sole survivor of the 300, committed suicide on the battlefield.
