Women were not permitted to watch the Olympic Games in Ancient Greece
Participation was limited to men in ancient Olympics initially. However, by 6th century BC women were allowed to participate in events like foot racing.
In the ancient Greek Olympics, city-states rather than modern countries competed, with the most notable participants being Athens, Sparta, Corinth, and Thebes. Athletes from various Greek city-states gathered to compete in events, showcasing their strength and skill. The Olympics were primarily a celebration of athletic prowess and religious devotion to Zeus, attracting competitors from across the Hellenic world. Participation was limited to freeborn Greek men, while women were generally excluded from competing.

The ancient Olympics began as entertainment for Ancient Greeks. When The Roman Empire captured Greece, they included the entire Roman Empire. Only men participated in The Olympics; however, women participated in local athletic events. Women just did not ride all over the countryside.
Women were not equal to men. Greek women had a fair amount of freedom in their time, but they still were not equal.
the ancient Olympics were all about strength. Some city-states were at war so the Greeks needed an Olympics. Women weren't allowed to come to lympia because they had their own festival. They COULDN'T come.
Women are now allowed to compete and there is a Marathon and there is winter Olympics and many more sports and no going naked. Ancient Olympic and Modern Olympic has a lots of events.
