Best Answer

The founder of the modern Olympic Games, Baron Pierre de Coubertin, originally designed the symbol in 1913

Actually, what actually happened was that some people found the sign carved on a piece of rock and thought that the Greek actually came up with the symbol. Baron Pierre de Coubertin introduced the rings and just made up the colors for the rings
