This is my last post guys so I hope you enjoyed my blog. In my blog we learned the rules of Pankration which are, you can't gouge out peoples mouth or nose or ears. We also learned the technics in Pankration. And we learned where they played it. (Outside of the Olympic Hippodrome.) The Olympics are important because they unite the world together, and they are the most celebrated athletic competition in the world. Weirdness is important because it makes people unique and it makes the world a little more fun and interesting. You can connect this to the world today because people still play this sport!!! Isn't that weird!! But the rules aren't as rough as the olden days. You can also relate this to now a days because the Olympics are still going after how ever many years!! That is crazy! Well that is the end of my blog so...Bye.
The people played this Grueling sport either inside a gym on a judo pad or in the olden greek days, they played it outside of the Olympic Hippodrome. This sport was played in a tournament type. (They played until one person either got a concussion or died.) When one person beat another person the person who won would move on. If he kept winning he would be crowned the winner. When he won he would receive a olive branch. (In we get a trophy/medal when people win in today's olympics.) Why did people want an Olive branch you ask? Well I don't know that so if you do then tell me at soon as you can.
