The original was a single event - a foot race of about 200 metres. This expanded steadily to include other types of events from Chariot Racing to Wrestling and the brutal pankration, an anything-goes killer fist fight. Like today's modern Olympics, the array of sports was ever-changing in the more than 1100 years it ran for until it became so degraded that the Roman emperor terminated it.
