Factual error: The error begins in this episode and continues in Season 1 Episode 12: "Beware Greeks Bearing Gifts." Near the end of The Reckoning, Xena and Ares are talking about making Xena "the architect of a new world". Xena says that she'll need an army. Ares tells her she can have anyone she wants. She mentions Achilles and Agamemnon in her list of warriors and then follows up by saying "they're long gone." In "Beware Greeks Bearing Gifts," the Trojan War is going on. This is historically inaccurate as Achilles was killed in the Trojan War and Agamemnon was the leader of the Greek forces in the Trojan War and wasn't killed until after it was over. (00:36:25 - 00:37:00)

1 factual error in season 1 - chronological order
Beware Greeks Bearing Gifts - S1-E12
Revealing mistake: At the end when Xena is fighting Deiphobus, he pushes her up against a large rock, every time she hits the rock it moves, as if it were foam.
Trivia: This was the 2nd of a two part episode, and the script had to be totally re-written as a mostly Xena Free episode due to Lucy breaking her pelvis in an accident on the Jay Leno show.
