Olympic Games
The Ancient Olympic Games were a series of athletic competitions held for representatives of various city-states of Ancient Greece. Records indicate that they began in 776 BC in Olympia, Greece. They were celebrated until 393 AD.[1] The Games were usually held every four years, or olympiad, as the unit of time came to be known. During a celebration of the Games, an Olympic Truce was enacted to enable athletes to travel from their countries to Olympia in safety. The prizes for the victors were laurel wreaths, palm branches, woolen ribbons and sometimes even food for life. The ancient Olympics were rather different from the modern Games. There were fewer events, and only free men who spoke Greek could compete, instead of athletes from any country. Also, the Games were always held at Olympia instead of moving around to different sites every time.[2]
QUESTIONS
1. In what year were the first olympics?
2. In what city-stae were the first olympics held?
3. How many years is an olympiad?
4. If you won a competition, what might be your prize?
5. Who could participate in the olympics?
