Your question made me curious, something I have wondered about for years, so I looked it up. According to Zorbas Dance Greek Restaurant, the tradition began when a rich Greek family invited a poor Greek family to dinner, and then invited them to smash the plates to prove that friendship was more important than materialism.
well,the rich greeks ate from golden plates and the poor greeks probably ate from plates made out of stone

Why don't you find out? Get a rock throw it at your wall, get a plate and throw it at your wall. See the difference!
The sport of the discus throw dates back to the ancient Greeks and the first Olympics circa 776BC.

No. That was a Roman tradition.

Yes, the ancient Greeks included the javelin throw as part of their athletic competitions, particularly in the context of the ancient Olympic Games. The event was known as "javelin" or "dart" (akontion in Greek) and involved athletes throwing a spear-like implement for distance. It was one of the events in the pentathlon, which also included running, long jump, discus throw, and wrestling. The javelin throw showcased both skill and strength, reflecting the Greeks' appreciation for athletic prowess.
