Greece is the home country of the Olympic Games. Olympia, a Greek city, was known to be a very important centre of athletics. The Olympic games, held there every four years, were so important in Greek life that they were used as the basis for the Greek calendar.
The Panathenaic games were divided into three sections, each. with their own type of competitions. The first section. consisted of music events, such as flute playing. competitions. The second section was general athletic. events, like the ones outlined in the sports section. The third section was restricted to Athenian citizens only, and featured traditional Athenian sports such as torch races, boat races, javelin throwing on horseback, etc. The Greater & Lesser Games The Greater Panathenaic games, holding all these events, were held only once every four years. In the years between, The Lesser Panathenaic games were held. These games featured less events, and were usually almost all Athenian, due to the lack of outside interest in the Lesser Games.
