'''Gorgo''' was a Queen Consort of the Kingdom of [[Sparta]].  She was the wife of King [[Leonidas]] and, as a young girl (her father, Leonidas's half-brother was King before him) she began to become active in politics.  She is mentioned as speaking in the senate chambers by [[Herodotus]]<ref>http://ancienthistory.about.com/od/spartarulers/a/Gorgo.htm</ref>, a historian of the time period.  Such direct mention by name was unusual, possibly indicating that she had meaningful political influence.  Her husband, father, and son were all kings.
