Panathenaia was an ancient Greek feast of Athens dedicated to the goddess Athena, which took place in the city every four years.
For the citizens of Athens, Panathenaea was the most important event of the year, but it was not considered as important as that of the Olympic Games.
It was divided into the Minor and the Great Panathenaea.
Historical One Minute brought to you by CelebrateGreece.com
The naming and patronage of an ancient city in Greece (now Athens) was determined by a mythological contest between the Greek Goddess Athena and the Greek God Poseidon. Its obvious who won, but as the video shows the Ancient Olympics were not the only ancient games held in Greece. Here a brief mention of the Panathenaic Games of Athens are shown.
The ancient games of Greece were:
Olympic Games (Olympia, Greece)
Nemean Games (Nemea, Greece)
Pythian Games (Delphi, Greece)
Isthmian Games (Isthmia, near Corinth, Greece)
Panathenaic Games (Athens, Greece)

Original Olympic Games were founded in 776 BC in Ancient Greece. They were held in honor of the king of Gods, Zeus. But it was also a way to celebrate the power of the human body. The Games were stopped in 393 AD. Romans, who invaded Greece, found the games contradicting to Christianity. It took more than 1500 years to revive the games. In the 19th century, different European countries held sports competitions. They were based on the Olympic Games, but these ones were local. Baron Pierre de Coubertin wanted to make them multinational. The idea was to unite people by sports competitions. It was a chance for nations to come together and overcome conflicts. The International Olympic Committee first met in 1894. They chose Athens to be the site of the first Olympics. It was a symbol of respect to the country which founded the Games. Greece government wanted the Olympics to be held in their country permanently. But the Committee didn’t approve it – the host countries had to be different. Greece was a poor country at that time. And the revival of the Games made the nation excited. The Olympics started on 6th April 1896. The opening ceremony was held on the rebuilt Panathenaic Stadium. In Ancient Greece, the games took place at the same stadium. 240 athletes from 14 countries participated in the competition. It wasn’t as a multinational and mass event as it is today. There were also other differences. Only men could participate in the Games - the same rule was in Ancient Greece. The winners were rewarded with silver medals, not gold ones. The second place got a bronze medal, and for the third place, there was no reward at all. There wasn’t also the traditional lighting of the Olympic flame. The modern symbol of the Olympics - the interlocking rings - was designed only in 1912. From 1896, the Olympics were held every four years. Winter Olympics were first conducted in 1924.

Panathenaic Games
The Panathenaic Games were held every four years in Athens in Ancient Greece since 566 BC. They continued into the 3rd century CE. These Games incorporated religious festival, ceremony (including prize-giving), athletic competitions, and cultural events hosted within a stadium.
Religious festival
The competitions for which this festival came to be known were only part of a much larger religious occasion; the Great Panathenaea itself. These ritual observances consisted of numerous sacrifices to Athena (the name-sake of the event and patron deity to the hosts of the event - Athens) as well as Poseidon and others. A sister-event to the Great Panathenaea was held every year - the Lesser Panathenaea, which was 3–4 days shorter in celebration. They were the most prestigious games for the citizens of Athens, but they were not as important as the Olympic Games or the other Panhellenic Games.
First Great Panathenaea
The first Great Panathenaea was held during the rule of Peisistratos in 566 BC, and was modelled on the Olympic Games. Peisistratos also added music and poetry competitions, which were part of the Pythian Games but not the Olympics. The games were divided into games for Athenians only, and games for Athenians and any other Greeks who wanted to participate. The games for all Greeks were essentially the same as the Olympics, with boxing, wrestling, pankration, pentathlon, and chariot racing, but chariot racing was the most prestigious of these, unlike the Olympics where the stadion (foot race) was more important.

Original Olympic Games were founded in 776 BC in Ancient Greece. They were held in honor of the king of Gods, Zeus. But it was also a way to celebrate the power of the human body. The Games were stopped in 393 AD. Romans, who invaded Greece, found the games contradicting to Christianity. It took more than 1500 years to revive the games. In the 19th century, different European countries held sports competitions. They were based on the Olympic Games, but these ones were local. Baron Pierre de Coubertin wanted to make them multinational. The idea was to unite people by sports competitions. It was a chance for nations to come together and overcome conflicts. The International Olympic Committee first met in 1894. They chose Athens to be the site of the first Olympics. It was a symbol of respect to the country which founded the Games. Greece government wanted the Olympics to be held in their country permanently. But the Committee didn’t approve it – the host countries had to be different. Greece was a poor country at that time. And the revival of the Games made the nation excited. The Olympics started on 6th April 1896. The opening ceremony was held on the rebuilt Panathenaic Stadium. In Ancient Greece, the games took place at the same stadium. 240 athletes from 14 countries participated in the competition. It wasn’t as a multinational and mass event as it is today. There were also other differences. Only men could participate in the Games - the same rule was in Ancient Greece. The winners were rewarded with silver medals, not gold ones. The second place got a bronze medal, and for the third place, there was no reward at all. There wasn’t also the traditional lighting of the Olympic flame. The modern symbol of the Olympics - the interlocking rings - was designed only in 1912. From 1896, the Olympics were held every four years. Winter Olympics were first conducted in 1924.

Panathenaia was an ancient Greek feast of Athens dedicated to the goddess Athena, which took place in the city every four years.
For the citizens of Athens, Panathenaea was the most important event of the year, but it was not considered as important as that of the Olympic Games.
It was divided into the Minor and the Great Panathenaea.

Historical One Minute brought to you by CelebrateGreece.com
The naming and patronage of an ancient city in Greece (now Athens) was determined by a mythological contest between the Greek Goddess Athena and the Greek God Poseidon. Its obvious who won, but as the video shows the Ancient Olympics were not the only ancient games held in Greece. Here a brief mention of the Panathenaic Games of Athens are shown.
The ancient games of Greece were:
Olympic Games (Olympia, Greece)
Nemean Games (Nemea, Greece)
Pythian Games (Delphi, Greece)
Isthmian Games (Isthmia, near Corinth, Greece)
Panathenaic Games (Athens, Greece)

SUBSCRIBE ► http://shorturl.at/etK26 - Greece, the stadium of first Olympic Games. Let's visit the Panathenaic Stadium (modern Greek: Παναθηναϊκό Στάδιο, Panathinaïkó Stádio) also known as Kallimarmaro (Καλλιμάρμαρο, lit. "beautiful marble"), which is a multi-purpose stadium in Athens, Greece. One of the main attractions of Athens, it is the only stadium in the world built entirely of marble. A stadium was built on the site of a simple racecourse by the Athenian statesman Lykourgos (Lycurgus) c. 330 BC, primarily for the Panathenaic Games. It was rebuilt in marble by Herodes Atticus, an Athenian Roman senator, by 144 AD and had a capacity of 50,000 seats. After the rise of Christianity in the 4th century it was largely abandoned. The stadium was excavated in 1869 and after being refurbished, it hosted the opening and closing ceremonies of the first modern Olympics in 1896 and was the venue for 4 of the 9 contested sports. It was used for various purposes in the 20th century and was once again used an Olympic venue in 2004. It is the finishing point for the annual Athens Classic Marathon. It is also the last venue in Greece from where the Olympic flame handover ceremony to the host nation takes place.

Panathenaic Games
The Panathenaic Games were held every four years in Athens in Ancient Greece since 566 BC. They continued into the 3rd century CE. These Games incorporated religious festival, ceremony (including prize-giving), athletic competitions, and cultural events hosted within a stadium.
Religious festival
The competitions for which this festival came to be known were only part of a much larger religious occasion; the Great Panathenaea itself. These ritual observances consisted of numerous sacrifices to Athena (the name-sake of the event and patron deity to the hosts of the event - Athens) as well as Poseidon and others. A sister-event to the Great Panathenaea was held every year - the Lesser Panathenaea, which was 3–4 days shorter in celebration. They were the most prestigious games for the citizens of Athens, but they were not as important as the Olympic Games or the other Panhellenic Games.
First Great Panathenaea
The first Great Panathenaea was held during the rule of Peisistratos in 566 BC, and was modelled on the Olympic Games. Peisistratos also added music and poetry competitions, which were part of the Pythian Games but not the Olympics. The games were divided into games for Athenians only, and games for Athenians and any other Greeks who wanted to participate. The games for all Greeks were essentially the same as the Olympics, with boxing, wrestling, pankration, pentathlon, and chariot racing, but chariot racing was the most prestigious of these, unlike the Olympics where the stadion (foot race) was more important.
