The Olympic Games in Comic Stripes
The very interesting and tender story of Lydia and Kallias gives us the opportunity to attend the 87th Olympiad of the year 432 b.C. We ‘ll be guided through Elis, the city which organized the ancient Olympic Games, and through the sacred grove of Olympia, with its famous buildings (the Temples of Hera and Zeus, the Treasuries,the Prytaneion, the Pelopion, the Bouleuterion). We‘ll learn all about the history of the gamesand we ‘ll participate in the religious ceremonies and cultural events which took place parallel to the athletic contests. We’ ll talk to Phidias, Socrates and Euripides and we‘ll get a better understandingof the Olympic Spirit, which was born here in Greece..
