What sports did ancient Greeks do?

What kind of sports and exercises did the ancient greeks participate?

Answer #1

Of course, the ancient Greeks started the Olympic Games!

Many of the games played in the Olympic Games of ancient Greece are still included in the Olympics of today. Three of these games are boxing, weightlifting, and the pentathalon. Boxing was much the same in ancient Greece as it is today. Boxers padded their hands in cloth and fought until one of them was knocked out.

The pentathalon was made up of five different events: discus throwing, javelin throwing, wrestling, running, and long jumping. All of these events are still included in the Olympics today.

One event from the ancient Greek Olympics that is too dangerous to be included in the games today is chariot racing.

Answer #2

discus, gladiator fights, wrestling, chariot racing,and etc.
