Yes, the ancient Olympics often took place during times of war. Notably, the Olympic Games were traditionally held every four years, and during this period, a truce known as the Olympic Peace was established, allowing athletes and spectators to travel safely to the games. However, there were instances when the games were canceled or postponed due to ongoing conflicts, such as the Peloponnesian War. Overall, the Olympics served as a temporary respite from warfare, promoting peace and unity among the Greek city-states.
