GREECE Trupeters' Competition, OlympiaOne medal from the collection Ancient Greek athletic contests.Silver 999 proof 30,6 gr The first steps in ancient Greek athletics athletic contests in ancient Greece were closely bound up with religion. They were associated with agricultural festivals and the veneration of the dead. As Homer so felicitously tells us in the Iliad, Achilles held funeral games in honour of his dead comrade Patroclus. Ancient sources tell us that funeral games were held after the battles of Marathon (490 B.C.), of Plataea (479 B.C.) and of Leuctra (371 B.C.). Alexander the Great, too, held games after each of his victories, to thank the gods and to honour the dead. With the passing of time, such games began to grow away from religion and to acquire their own independent athletic character. Some had a Panhellenic compass, while others were more local, confined to the area of a single city-state. Trupeters' Competition, Olympia A contest between trumpeters to see whose trumpet-call could be heard farthest. In the illustration the trumpeter is naked and his trumpet is turned upwards.
