The Olympic Games were seen as a pagan festival because they were held in honor of Zeus, the chief deity of the ancient Greek pantheon. The games included religious rituals, sacrifices, and offerings to the gods, reflecting the deeply ingrained polytheistic beliefs of Greek society. Additionally, the events were intertwined with various cultural and religious practices, reinforcing their status as a celebration of pagan traditions rather than a purely athletic competition. This connection to mythology and worship distinguished the Olympics as a significant religious event in ancient Greece.
