Maps of World History of the Olympic Mascots Since the first mascot in Olympic history made its appearance at the 1972 Munich Olympic Games, mascots have become a main element of the Olympic image. As a unique and popular image full of vitality, a mascot is able to materialize the Olympic spirit, communicate the concepts of each Olympic Games, promote the history and culture of the host city and create a festive atmosphere for the Games. Mascots act as a significant vehicle for communicating the Olympic spirit to the general public, especially children and youth. Whatever shapes they have, they fundamentally share a creative rationale, that is, the mascots must be able to convey the theme of the Olympic Games, showcase the distinctive geographical features, history and culture unique to the host city. Waldimascot of 1972 Olympic Summer Games in Munich, Germany Waldi, the dachshund. Very popular in Bavaria, but he also possesses qualities which are indispensable to an athlete: resistance, tenacity and agility. These are among the reasons he was chosen to be the mascot. He was dressed in pastel colors to express the gaiety and joy of the Olympic festival. Amikmascot of the 1976 Olympic Summer Games in Montreal, Canada

Summer Olympic Games From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Poster for the 1920 Summer Olympics in Antwerp The Summer Olympic Games are an international multi-sport event held every four years, organised by the International Olympic Committee . The Olympics are the most prestigious of such events in the world, featuring a larger range of sports than others. Olympic victory is widely considered to be the most prestigious achievement in sports. Medals are awarded in each event, with gold for first place, silver for second and bronze for third, a tradition which started in 1904. Competitors are entered by a National Olympic Committee NOC ) to represent their country of citizenship. National anthems and flags accompany the medal ceremonies, and tables showing the number of medals won by each country are widely used. In general only recognised nations are represented, but a few non-sovereign countries are allowed to take part. The special case of Taiwan was handled by having it compete as Chinese Taipei , to avoid the issue of Taiwanese independence. Though the most diverse sporting event in the world, the Olympics are perhaps not the most popular. The

However, the main article at Olympic Rings correctly suggests that there is no official correlation between continents and colours and at least three competing unofficial ones.

The term became current around the turn of the 20th century, originally referring to illegal drugging of racehorses. The practice of enhancing performance through foreign substances or other artificial means, however, is as old as competitive sport itself. Ancient Greek athletes are known to have used special diets and stimulating potions to fortify themselves. Strychnine, caffeine, cocaine and alcohol were often used by cyclists and other endurance athletes in the 19th century. Thomas Hicks ran to victory in the Olympic marathon of 1904 in Saint Louis by help of raw egg, injections of strychnine and doses of brandy administered to him during the race! By the 1920's it had become evident that restrictions regarding drug use in sports were necessary.

SITE SEARCH Home The Olympic Movement Modern History Olympic Issues Date The first recorded Ancient Olympic Games were in 776BC. They lasted for approximately 1000 years. Place The Games were held in Olympia, a village in a sacred valley, approximately 500km south west of Mount Olympus. Purpose The Ancient Olympic Games were held as a religious, sporting and cultural festival in honour of Zeus, the father of the gods. Philosophy The Ancient Greeks believed that both the body and mind needed discipline and that those who practised this discipline could best honour Zeus. The Ancient Olympic Games These Games were held every four years Only Greek citizens were allowed to compete. Ancient Greece was divided into independent states, often at war with each other. During the Games there was an official truce, called Ekecheiria.. This meant athletes could travel safely to and from the Games. Violation of this truce was punishable by death. The Marathon The modern marathon is one event which originated in these Ancient Games. Legend has it that Miltiades, a Greek General with an Athenian army, fought and won a battle against the Persians. He called for an Athenian runner and asked him to carry the victorious news back to Athens. The runner's journey was 24 miles but he entered the streets of Athens and shouted 'Rejoice! We conquer!' He then dropped dead. Although the accuracy of this tale is questionable, the first Modern Olympic Games in 1896, included the marathon to commemorate this legend.
