米诺斯文明时期,克里特人就已经有了竞技习俗,这种习俗的产生与他们所持的母权制态度有重要的关系。迈锡尼文明期间,这种习俗被阿卡亚人赋予了父权制的文化态度,注入了希腊诸神的元素,且发展成为希腊人重要的文化传统。而阿哈伊亚人则对其注入了男子气概,并将宙斯改造成了战神,使这种习俗演变成希腊式竞技,且发展出早期的竞技赛会。这种竞技赛会后来在多利安人手中得到了延续和发展,从而为古代奥运的诞生奠定了基础。 During the Minoan Civilization, Cretaceous people already had competitive customs, and the occurrence of such practices had an important relationship with the attitude of their matriarchy. During Mycenaean civilization, this custom was endowed with a patriarchal cultural attitude by the Akkas, infused elements of the Greek gods and developed into an important cultural tradition of the Greeks. The Acharyans, on the other hand, infused masculinity with Zeus and transformed it into a god of war, evolving this custom into a Greek sport and developing an early competitive event. This competitive event was later extended and developed by the Dorians, laying the foundation for the birth of the ancient Olympics.
