Smarty goes to ancient Olympia Coupons, Promo Codes - April 2024

On one of his trips to Greece, Smarty decided to visit Olympia, in the Peloponnese, where the Olympic games first started. He got there rather early, so he decided to while away his time in a pleasant manner by fishing in the nearby river of Alpheus, until it was time for his guided tour of the archaeological site………

In this adventure, Smarty is transported to ancient Olympia, the place where the Olympic games first originated in order to unravel a mystery which has remained unsolved for centuries and to right a terrible past injustice against a great athlete.

• What could be the little gold statue that Smarty found by chance while he was fishing on the banks of the river Alpheus and why did the guard seem so overjoyed that it had been found?
• What is the great injustice that Smarty must redress?
• Why did the “gymnastis” of Leandros, the great athlete who was sure to win the stadion race, go missing?
• Who are the people who want to exclude Leandros from the contests and why?
• What is the great secret that Smarty must reveal?
• What help does the goddess Hera offer and what is the plan, which requires the help of the artist, to uncover the culprit?

Will Smarty manage to triumph in this adventure too? To overcome the challenges and to solve the riddles, he must pluck up his courage and collect valuable facts about the ancient Olympic games and the way they were performed. On this mission, he will be helped by 16 different characters that he meets, like Alpheus, the alitarchis, the exegetis, the aristocrat, the hellanodikis, the priest, the artist and the ravdochos. These people will give him valuable information about the Olympic sports, (what they were, when they took place, and who could take part in them) about the prizes given to the victors and the punishments given to the transgressors, about the competitive spirit of the Greeks, about the training, the cultural activity, the temple of Zeus, the Heraion, and many other things.
