Why did ancient Greece stop war for the Olympics?
The Greeks highly valued physical perfection and and athletic prowess. These games were of supreme importance to them. With the "Olympic Truce," established in the 9th century, the Greeks began a sacred tradition of peace before, during, and after the Olympic games so that spectators could travel safely to and from events, and the games would not be interrupted. Even legal disputes were banished. In 1996 attempts began to revive this tradition.
