Never.
There where 3 main criteria for participation in the games:
- FIRST you HAD to be male,
- SECOND you had to be Greek,
- THIRD you had to be a free MAN. Women slaves and foreigners where excluded.
Although women were not allowed in the Olympic Games, they still practised sport. At Olympia (back then it was called Olympia not Olympics, young girls had there own games, the Heraia, in honour of the goddess Hera, the wife of Zeus. These competitions were held every four years and consisted of running races only.
Not in all events. There were some events that had women competitors. Married women weren't allowed to spectate because the men in the Olympics were entirely nude. The penalty could be a harsh as death.
Married woman were not allowed however unmarried woman were allowed to watch. Woman were not allowed to compete, yet they could enter their own chariot for the races. If they won, the owners were considered the winners due to the cost of mantaining the chariot and horses. The woman had their own Games, called the Hera Games.
women could not compete in the ancient olympic games because of the fact that everyone thought that the men and boys had more superiority and rights.
Women were NOT allowed to attend the olympic games(if they did they would be given a fine-maidens were allowed to attend) aswell as that, if they were married they wern't allowed to watch.
yes those who were unmarried but married were not allowed because of men who compete naked.
