No, ladies were not allowed to compete in the ancient greek Olympics until much later then men. The first recorded Olympics were in 776BC, but women could not compete for another 500 years. Glad i could help :)
That would be Paris and the 1900 Summer Olympics. Charlotte Cooper of Great Britain was the first woman to win a gold medal at the Olympic Games when she won the Ladies Singles competition in tennis.

Women were officially first allowed to compete in Olympic sports in the Second Olympiad, held in 1900 in Paris, France.
They were first allowed to ride in the Olympics in 1952
I don't know that history has recorded the first woman to compete in the Olympics. History has recorded that the first woman to win a gold medal was Charlotte Cooper of Great Britain who won gold in ladies singles tennis in the 1900 Olympics in Paris. The 1900 Olympics were the second Olympics of the modern era and the first that women were allowed to compete in. Women were not allowed to compete in the first modern Olympics held in Greece in 1896.
