  8. History Of The Olympics We believe that the first Olympic Games were held in 776B.C. to honor the god Zeus and Hera. The games were always held in Olympia. In 393 C.E., the Roman emperor Theodosius I, a Christian, eliminated the Games because of their pagan influences. The Olympics later started up again in 1896. Back to Room 1

  10. How Did Greek Prepare For the Olympics? The Greeks prepared for the Olympics by either renovating or building a new Olympic stadium. Then, they would call a truce of wars to all the countries competing and surrounding Greek, so the athletes and fans could safely attend the games. Back to Room 1

  11. Who Competed In the Olympics? Only men were allowed to compete in the Olympics. Women were not allowed to even watch the Olympics. The men would compete naked.
