AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'The ancient Olympics were a religious festival as much as a sporting competition. The Games at Olympia honored Zeus, the ruler of heaven, and Nike, the goddess of victory. Nudes and Nikes gives the history of this event that has occurred every four years for the past 1,200 years.' (Publication summary)
