Sparta XML is a piece of software known as a parser. It is a fast and small open-source SAX and DOM Java XML parser that also includes an XPath subset.

It comes in two forms:

1. A core package that parses XML into a simplified DOM and is smaller and easier to program than the standard Java XML DOM. It also allows an XPath subset for doing database-like queries.
2. A wrapper package, dubbed Thermopylae, that implements the standard Java XML API's for SAX and DOM parsers.
