In 776 B.C. the first Olympic Games were held at the foot of Mount Olympus to honor the Greek’s chief god, Zeus. The Greeks emphasized physical fitness and strength in their education of youth. There fore, contests in running, jumping, discus and javelin throwing, boxing, and, horse and chariot racing were held in individual cities, and the winners competed every four years at Mount Olympus. Winners were greatly honored by having olive wreaths placed on their heads and having poems sung about their deeds. Originally these were held as games of friendship, and any wars in progress were halted to allow the games to take place.
The Greeks attached so much importance to these games that they calculated time in fouryear cycles called "Olympiads" dating from 776 B. C.
