Olympic flame



The ancient greeks started the tradition of having an Olympic flame in Olympia. A sacred flame is lit by the sun's rays and stays alight until the games have ended.  The  flame symbolized a request for protection from Zeus and the athletes’ struggles for victory.

The modern flame symbolizes the light of the spirit, knowledge and life. To this day, the torch is still lit in Olympia in Greece, then carried by a relay team, passing runner to runner, until it reaches the Host-city of the games. There, the cauldron will be lit and stay alight until the closing ceremony.

Marie Ancient Olympics

The Olympics began over two and half thousand years ago in ancient  Greece.In  those days Greece was made up of several diffrent states inclodeing Athens, Sparta, and Corinth and they were often in war with ecah other. But when the game was on they held the truce.This great event was held at a place called Olympia and this is why the games a called the Olympics. They were held once every four years in honor of Zeus lord of all the Gods.Eventually the ancient Olympics were abolished by the Roman Emperor Theodosius the first who was a Christian and didn't like the games because they were dedicated  to pagan God.But the  Olympics will always be remembered as a symbol of human achievement and peace.
