Olympic Games, Long Jump, Red-Figure Pottery

The Ancient Olympic pentathlon was an athletic contest. Five events were contested over one day, starting with the stadion (foot race) followed by the javelin throw, discus throw, long jump, and ending with wrestling. The Olympic Games were a series of athletic competitions among representatives of city-states and one of the Panhellenic Games of Ancient Greece. They were held in honor of Zeus, and the Greeks gave them a mythological origin. The games were held every four years, or olympiad, which became a unit of time in historical chronologies. The main events at each of the games were chariot racing, wrestling, boxing, pankration, stadion and various other foot races, and the pentathlon (wrestling, stadion, long jump, javelin throw, and discus throw). Except for the chariot race, all the events were performed nude. Red-figure vase painting is one of the most important styles of figural Greek vase painting. It developed in Athens around 520 BC and remained in use until the late 3rd century BC. Its modern name is based on the figural depictions in red color on a black background, in contrast to the preceding black-figure style with black figures on a red background.

Olympic Games, Long Jump, Red-Figure Pottery
Descripción:
Traducción automática: El pentatlón olímpico antiguo era una competición atlética. Se disputaron cinco pruebas en un día, comenzando con el estadio (carrera a pie), seguido del lanzamiento de jabalina, lanzamiento de disco, salto de longitud y finalizando con la lucha libre. Los Juegos Olímpicos fueron una serie de competiciones atléticas entre representantes de ciudades-estado y uno de los Juegos Panhelénicos de la Antigua Grecia. Se celebraban en honor a Zeus y los griegos les dieron un origen mitológico. Los juegos se celebraban cada cuatro años, u olimpíadas, que se convirtieron en una unidad de tiempo en las cronologías históricas. Los principales eventos de cada uno de los juegos fueron las carreras de carros, la lucha libre, el boxeo, el pancracio, el estadio y varias otras carreras a pie, y el pentatlón (lucha, estadio, salto de longitud, lanzamiento de jabalina y lanzamiento de disco). A excepción de la carrera de carros, todos los eventos se realizaron desnudos. La pintura de jarrones de figuras rojas es uno de los estilos más importantes de pintura de jarrones griegos figurativos. Se desarrolló en Atenas alrededor del 520 a.C. y permaneció en uso hasta finales del siglo III a.C. Su nombre moderno se basa en las representaciones figurativas en color rojo sobre fondo negro, en contraste con el estilo anterior de figuras negras con figuras negras sobre fondo rojo.
