They were held in honor of the King of the Gods, Zeus. The first official revival of the Olympic Games took place in 1896. From this point on, the Olympic Games became an international sporting competition. The location of the current Olympic Games rotates between different cities across the globe.
The original games began in 776 BC as part of a religious festival. The ancient Greeks often engaged in athletic contests in association with religious observances. Homer describes them being held as part of funeral rites in the Iliad. The ancient games were held every four years, the Greeks would even halt their wars for the games. They lasted until the fourth century A.D. The modern games began in 1896. They were organized by the baron De Coubertin. he wanted to revive the Olympics to foster a sense of international sportsmanship and fair play and a universal striving for excellence for its own sake.
