Panathenaic Games
The Panathenaic Games were held every four years in Athens in Ancient Greece since 566 BC.〔A Brief History of the Olympic Games by David C. Young, Wiley-Blackwell, 2004, ISBN 978-1-4051-1129-4, p. 23〕 They continued into the 3rd century CE.〔Susan Heuck Allen, ''(Finding the walls of Troy: Frank Calvert and Heinrich Schliemann at Hisarlík ), University of California Press, 1999, ISBN 0-520-20868-4, p. 39.〕 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.
