Ancient Greece is a mythical kingdom. Beautiful and moving fairy tales and bizarre folk tales cast a mysterious color on the origin of the ancient Olympic Games. Legend: The ancient Olympic Games was a regular sports activity to sacrifice Zeus. Another legend is related to Hercules, the son of Zeus. Heracles was praised as "Hercules" because of his great strength. He finished the task that ordinary people couldn't finish in Elis city-state, and cleaned the king's cowshed full of cow dung in less than half a day, but the king didn't want to fulfill his promise of giving away 3 cows, so Herakler drove the king away in a fit of pique. To celebrate his victory, he held a sports meeting in the Olympics.

The most popular story about the origin of the ancient Olympic Games is the story of Pelops's marriage. King Elis of ancient Greece, in order to choose a husband who is both civil and military for his daughter, proposed that the candidate must compete with himself in the chariot. In the competition, 13 youths were killed by the king's spear, and the 14th youth was Pelops, the grandson of Zeus and the sweetheart of the princess. Encouraged by love, he bravely accepted the king's challenge and finally won with wisdom. In order to celebrate this victory, Pelops and the princess held a grand wedding in front of Zeus Temple in Olympia. At the meeting, chariots, gladiators and other competitions were arranged. This was the original ancient Olympic Games, and Pelops became the legendary founder of the ancient Olympic Games.

The origin of the Olympic Games is actually closely related to the social situation in ancient Greece. In the 9th-8th century BC, the Greek clan society gradually disintegrated, the slave society of city-state system gradually formed, and more than 2 city-states were established. The city-states are fragmented, there is no unified monarch, and wars between the city-states continue. In order to cope with the war, every city-state actively trained its soldiers. Children in the Spartan city-state have been raised by the state since they were seven years old, engaged in sports and military training, and lived a military life. War needs soldiers, soldiers need strong bodies, and sports is a powerful means to train soldiers who can fight well. The war promoted the development of Greek sports, and the events of the ancient Olympic Games also had obvious military brand. The people are disgusted by the continuous war, and they are generally eager to have a peaceful environment to recuperate. Later, King Sparta and King Elis signed the "Holy Truce Month" treaty. As a result, military training and sports competition to prepare for the source of troops have gradually turned into peace and friendship games.

In 776 BC, the Greeks stipulated that a sports meeting should be held in Olympia every four years. During the Games, all Greek athletes and nearby citizens gathered in Olympia, a scenic town in southern Greece. In 776 BC, when the first Olympic Games were held here, the Dorian Klose won the 192.27-meter sprint. He became the first winner of the first event in the International Olympic Games.

Later, the scale of the ancient Greek Games gradually expanded and became a grand event to show the national spirit. Winners of the competition get wreaths woven by laurel, wild olive and palm. From 776 BC to 394 AD, after 117 years, * * * held the 293rd ancient Olympic Games. It was banned by the Roman emperor in 394 AD.

from 1875 to 1881, German Ku Tius people excavated cultural relics at the Olympic site, which aroused the interest of the whole world. Therefore, Pierre De Coubertin, a French educator, believes that restoring the tradition of the ancient Greek Olympic Games is of great significance to promoting the development of international sports. Under his advocacy and active running, the first international sports conference was held in Paris in June 1894. The international sports congress decided to call the world-wide comprehensive sports meeting the Olympic Games, and in 189, it was decided to learn something about it. a target=_blank href=/view/31483.htm> The first modern Olympic Games was held in Athens, once every four years, in turn in all member countries.

By 2, 28 Olympic Games had been held.

Opening Ceremony

The evolution of the Olympic Games, known as competitive games, originated in ancient Greece and was named after its venue in Olympia. Ancient Greeks had a tradition of loving sports. Ancient Greece was divided into many city-states. In order to offer sacrifices to the gods, the city-states often held athletic meetings, which were strongly religious. During the Games, a sacred truce was implemented to facilitate citizens' free exchanges and bring short-term peace to the endless wars between the city-states, so it was widely welcomed. Among many competitions, the largest and longest-lasting one is the one held in Olympia to worship Zeus, the father of all gods, which is now called the ancient Olympic Games.

Flag raising ceremony

The first ancient Olympic Games was held in 776 BC. Since then, it has been held every four years until 393 AD, when the Christian Roman emperor Theodosius I banned all pagan activities and announced the abolition of the ancient Olympic Games, which lasted for 1169 years and was held for 293 sessions. Decades later, Theodosius II burned the temple of Zeus, and later floods and earthquakes buried the ruins of the ancient Olympic Games.

in the middle of the 18th century, the ancient Olympic ruins were rediscovered by archaeologists. With the development of modern sports, people are eager to resume the Olympic Games. From 1859 to 1889, the Greeks held four Olympic Games. In 1888, Baron P.de Coubertin of France put forward the proposal of restoring the Olympic Games, and in 1892, he visited all European countries. After two years of running and raising funds, an international sports conference was held in Paris, France in June 1894. On June 23rd, the International Olympic Committee was established. Since then, June 23rd has been called Olympic Day. The meeting also decided to hold the first modern Olympic Games in Athens, Greece from April 6 to 15, 1896, and hold it every four years thereafter, alternately in major cities on five continents. If the sports meeting cannot be held for some reason, the number of Olympic Games will still be counted.

The first Olympic Charter initiated and formulated by Coubertin was adopted at the Paris International Conference in June p>1894. It involves the basic purposes, principles and other related matters of the Olympic Movement. At the 1921 Lausanne Olympic Conference, the Olympic Law was formulated, including the Olympic Charter, the Constitution of the International Olympic Committee, the rules and agreements of the Olympic Games.
