The Greeks' fascination with athletics in the gymnasium and festivals, such as the Olympic Games is well known. This book looks at the art associated with Greek athletics to see what it meant to both Greeks and Romans during the period of the Roman Empire. It argues that athletics continued to act as a crucial sign of Greek identity.
