Summary
| Description |
English: In the Greek world the Olympic Games represented an extremely important event. Every four years the best of Greek youth would get together at Olympia, an ancient, sacred city to compete in various disciplines. Even wars were suspended so that the games could go ahead. Indeed the timetable for the games dictated the order of other events, so much so that history itself has blended into myth. Hercules, fulfilling his father Zeus’ wish, set up the first games. Who better than the most popular hero of classical mythology, with his legendary twelve labours, to embody the spirit of the games? |
