Hoplitodromos was another kind of Ancient foot race. It was the last of all foot races to be added to the Olympics. It made its first appearance at the 65th Olympics in 520 BC. Pygme, or Pygmachia, was an Ancient type of Boxing. Pale was kind of like boxing, but not so protected. Pankration was like a fight to the death with two rules: no biting, and no poking the other guy in the eye. It was a little like modern day Martial Arts. Chariot Racing is pretty self-explanatory. You got in a Chariot that was attached to two horses, and raced around the stadium.
