Panpipes, flutes, and drums were also used.
Inside, the Greeks would also play Board Games and/or cards. Achilles and Ajax created a game named 'Ephisdremos', where a stone is thrown at by balls or small pebbles. The one who fails to flip the stone carries the other (while blind folded) until he reaches the stone, if not wandering astray.
