Answer:
Shame (Aidos)
Explanation:
In the Greek culture portrayed in the Iliad, a warrior is supposed to be courageous, strong, and fearless in the face of adversity or war.
It is unheard of for a Greek warrior to refuse to fight a battle because he was scared for his life. Cowards were frowned upon and ridiculed.
There is no greater honor accorded to a man who went to fight for the honor of his household or country, even if he ends up dead.
Therefore, the worst fate for a warrior in the culture represented in the Iliad is shame (aidos)

A)The United States uses an identical jury system as was used in ancient Athens.
* I don't recall hearing about any 200 member juries at any time in recent history. So this is obviously wrong.

* Yes indeed. We do use a jury system, and we use far fewer jurors than ancient Athens.
C)The United States uses a jury system, but with more jurors than were used in ancient Athens.
* For the same reason that A is wrong, this is also wrong.
D)The United States uses judges, but not juries, as used in ancient Athens.
* We use both a judge and jury. So this too, is wrong.</span>
