Did you know that the Olympics were once abolished? Since the Olympics were in essence a religious affair, the Greeks proclaimed the hieromenia which is a sacred truce for the duration of the games. It was important that no competitor must be found guilty of unfair practice which they are asked to pay a fine that will be used to build a statue of Zeus at the stadium entrance. The games lost its reputation when Nero was allowed to win in the chariot race in AD 66, at during the 393 AD, emperor Theodosius made a decree to abolish it.

The Olympic Games is just one of the numerous ritual games the Greeks celebrate. These games became the most important and as early as 776 BC a list of champions exists. The first Games lasted only for a day and consist of only one event which is a race of about 210 yards which is the length of the stadium. When it was extended, it ran for about to 5 days which evolved to 4 running events. Combat sports were also included such as boxing and the pankration. Soon enough even racing chariots were included and it was called the pentathlon.

I found out that the Olympics may have been instituted in an unusual way. Many legends profess the inception of the games in ancient Greece. Pindar tells that Hercules initiated the games after cleansing the Augean stables. Augeas, the ruler of Elis, made Hercules clean out his enormous stable and Hercules did it in just one day with a promise to give Hercules a tenth of his herds. Since the king did not keep his side of the bargain, Hercules killed him and his entire family, keeping the entire stock of cattle to himself. Thus, he instituted the Olympic Games to remember the occasion.
