The Olympics

Ancient Greek Olympics The statue of Zeus is thirteen metres high and covered with ivory and gold. They put it there to honour Zeus. The first Olympics were held in 776bc. They held chariot races and running races. It would have been very hot and overcrowded, and the water supply was poor. Pankration wrestling was an event held on the 4th day.

History of the modern Olympics The ancient Greek Olympics grew and continued to be played every four years for nearly 1200 years. A roman emperor abolished the games because of their pagan influences. A Pagan influence is when someone doesn't believe in something.1500 years later a French man began their revival.
