The difference between modern and ancient olympics is the technology that was used. Ancient olympics used olden day technology or none at all. No high quality equipment was available and each athlete did not have spikes, skins, leotards, and fancy goggles. In contrast, modern day olympians have all this which effects their performance in the pool, track, field or stadium. Also, modern olympics have cameras and technology that enables the whole world to watch and cheer their country on. Hope this helps xo
The name "Olympics" is not an acronym, so there is no particular significance to each letter. It comes from the name Olympia, the sanctuary where the ancient Olympic games were held.
The ancient Olympics was a religious observance using athletic competitions. Any freeborn Greek male could participate. It was held every 4 years during the summer in Olympia, Greece. The ancient Olympics had competitions in running, fighting (boxing and wrestling), chariot racing and a pentathlon (wresting, running, long jump, javelin throw, and discus throw). The modern Olympics is a cultural and political event staged as athletic competitions and is held every 4 years in summer and in winter at a different location each time. Competitions are held in the participating countries throughout the four years before an Olympics to determine who will be the members of each country's Olympic team and only those can compete in the Olympics. The modern Olympics involves many more sports than the ancient games, including team sports that were unknown to the ancient Greeks.
