Later the victor was presented with valuable gifts and his name was written in the columns standing in Olympia. From 1896 on, the medal (gold, silver, bronze) became the only official Olympic award.
The first medal in modern Olympic competition was presented on April 6, 1896 to the American athlete James Brenden Connolly for a triple jump of 13.71 metres.

HISTORY
1. The first recorded Olympic contest took place in the Stadium of Olympia in 776 B.C. This stadium was located in the valley of Olympia in western Greece. The Stadium of Olympia had room for 40.000 spectators. For many years the Olympics were for male contestants and male spectators only. The Olympics were held every four years. The only event in the first 13 Olympiads was a footrace of about 180 metres. Through the years longer running races were added to the Olympic programme. Other types of competition also became part of the Olympics. Wrestling and the pentathlon - which originally consisted of the discus throw, javelin throw, long jump, a sprint and wrestling - were added to the competition in 708 B.C. A savage and sometimes deadly sport called pancratium, which combined boxing and wrestling was introduced to the Olympics in 648 B.C.
2. The Roman Empire conquered Greece during the 100’s B.C. In A.D. 394 Emperor Theodosius ordered the Olympic Games ended. No Olympics were held for more than 1.500 years.
3. An earthquake destroyed the Stadium of Olympia in the A.D. 500’s and a landslide later buried the ruins of the structure. A group of German archaeologists discovered the ruins 1875. A discovery gave Baron Pierre de Coubertin, a French educator, the idea of organizing a modern, international Olympics.
4. Coubertin believed that athletics played an important part in forming a person’s character. He also thought that international sports competition would promote world peace. In 1894 Coubertin presented his idea to an international meeting on amateur sports. The group voted to organize the games and it formed the international Olympic Committee. The first modern Olympic Games took place in 1896 in Athens, Greece.
5. The Olympics have been the scene of numerous exciting individual achievements. Paavo Nurmi, a long-distance runner from Finland won nine gold medals in 1920, 1924, 1928; Johnny Weissmuller, a swimmer from the United States, won five gold medals in 1924 and 1928; Mark Sppitz, a United States swimmer set a record in 1972 by winning seven gold medals in a single Olympics. Nadia Comaneci, a Romanian gymnast, became the first gymnast to receive a perfect score of 10 in the Olympic Games.
VIII. Ответьте письменно на поставленные вопросы:
1. What were the most important events in the original Olympic Games?
What discovery gave Baron Pierre de Coubertin the idea of organizing modern Olympic Games?
