Olympic games originated in ancient Greece in 776 B.C. The Greek games, held once every four years, reached their height in the 5th and 4th centuries B.C., but were discontinued at the end of the 4th century. The modern revival of the games began in Athens in 1896. They have since been staged at 4-year intervals in cities around the world. Women were first allowed to compete in 1912, and a separate series of winter games began in 1924.
