However, it was more than just a sport. Called by Philostratos the "Worthiest contest in the Olympiads and the most important preparation for warriors", Pankration was the martial training of the Greek armies and was taken to India with the legions of Alexander the Great, where it became the accepted ancestor of the oriental martial arts. Today, Pankration is experiencing a worldwide re-birth, with an increasing number of martial artists and athletes being drawn to this ancient "King of Olympic Sports" as the ultimate combat sport of modern times.

Home About Us Overview Our System ... Articles Pankration 2004 by: Tom Saviano Anyway, the trip was a success. The Greek government and the International Olympic Committee required that we have Pankration practiced on four continents and in 25 countries within one year. On April 11, 1999 we returned to Greece. We had met all requirements within five months. The common denominator here is that all of us, men and women that had never met, each representing their own country with so many diverse martial art backgrounds, embraced this opportunity with open arms, and even more importantly, open minds. So here we are 3700 years later motivated and excited about entering the Olympics in 2004. I can only hope that the spirits of the men that walked into the Olympic Stadium in 648 BC are smiling down on us. I hope to see you in Athens!!

Pankration Wikipedia Hoppa till: navigering s¶k Pankration var en antik t¤vlingsgren som snarast kan liknas vid en blandning av brottning och boxning . Ordet "pankration" kommer fr¥n grekiskans "pan" som betyder allt och "kratos" som betyder styrka eller kraft. Reglerna till¤t det mesta, utom att bitas och att peta i ¶gonen. I stadsstaten Sparta var emellertid ¤ven detta till¥tet. Att sparka n¥gon i skrevet var en fullt legitim teknik, som av f¶rklarliga sk¤l ans¥gs synnerligen effektiv. Pankration uppstod troligen ur de primitiva tekniker som en m¤nniska tar till i en obev¤pnad kamp p¥ liv och d¶d. I sporten f¶rekom b¥de slag, sparkar och allehanda, grepp, kast och strypningar. En k¤nd incident fr¥n 564 f.Kr. (pankration var den mest publikdragande grenen vid denna tid) var d¤r den tv¥faldige olympiam¤staren Arrhachion fr¥n Figalia lyckades besegra sin motst¥ndare genom att bryta dennes t¥r, trots att han satt fast i ett h¥rt strypgrepp. Motst¥ndaren gav upp kampen, men Arrhachion hade hunnit d¶ och fick sin tredje guldmedalj postumt Pankration fanns i tv¥ varianter: Orthostanden i vilken k¤mparna var tvungna att f¶rbli st¥ende samt den vanligaste

Further information on viewing conditions, site index and the site Google search facility Pankration was an ancient sport introduced in the Greek Olympic games in 648 BC. Many historians believe that, although Pankration was not one of the first Olympic sports, it was likely the most popular. Some also argue it to be the first all-encompassing fighting system in human history. This is a strongly debated issue in the academic community. Pankration Etymology : The term comes from the Ancient Greek words "pan" (meaning "all") and "kratos" (meaning "strength" or "power") or in other words, no holds barred. The term is also used to describe the sport's modern varieties. Origins In Greek mythology it was said that the heroes Hercules and Theseus invented the pankration as a result of using both wrestling and boxing, were the two co-founders of panmahia, unarmed combat. The term " panmahia " would later become disused in favor of the term pankration . The ropolo (club) and lion skin armor would also become symbolic among Hellenic warriors due to the famed feats of Hercules. It had numerious forms such as kato pankration, in which the athletes could fall to the ground and continue the match, and ano pankration, in which athletes had to remain standing throughout the match. The competitors could use moves like the gastrizein , (stomach trick), which was a kick to the gut, as well as the apopternizein , (heel trick), where a foot was grabbed to throw an opponent off balance. Also one opponent could hold another and punch him during a match. Pankration was more than just an Olympic event, it formed the basis for all combat training for Greek soldiers - including the famous Spartan Hoplite warriors and Alexander The Great's Macedonian Phalanxes.

Poliakoff The history of combat sports at the Olympics is long and eventful, dating back to 708 B.C.E. How societies organize and pursue such sportsin which some level of violence is simply part of the gametells us a lot about their values and priorities far beyond the world of sport. These issues are with us today, and we can benefit from the reflections of our forebears. Modern societies often object strongly to boxing. Critics consider its casualties senseless and the violent spectacle detrimental to the values and mores of the society that tolerates it. In 1970 Sweden made prizefighting (though not amateur boxing) a punishable crime. "It will be said that if two consenting adults want to batter each other for the amusement of paying adults, the essential niceties have been satisfied, 'consent' being almost the only nicety of a liberal society," columnist George Will wrote two decades ago. "But from Plato on, political philosophers have taken entertainments seriously, and have believed the law should, too. They have because a society is judged by the kind of citizens it produces, and some entertainments are coarsening. Good government and the good life depend on good values and passions, and some entertainments are inimical to these."

Whoever believes that martial arts were born and raised in the Far East is, it seems, mistaken. As in almost every aspect of history, the Greeks got there first , this time proudly proclaiming to the world their place as the first to practice martial arts. The Greek version of karate is called Pankration , a name that has existed since 648BC. It’s a blend of wrestling, boxing, strangulation, kicking, striking techniques and joint locks. Fast forward to 2006 and this particular martial art is alive and kicking, literally, in over 30 countries.  Despite changing over the years, Pankration still looked frightfully violent to me.Â

55. Ben's Perspective: Pankration: Ancient Greek Martial Arts - The Most Ancient Kno In searching for greek martial arts I found a style called pankration that is virtually unknown in the US. Here is a very interesting video published http://bensperspective.blogspot.com/2007/07/pankration-ancient-greek-martial-art

Ben's Perspective Sunday, July 29, 2007 Pankration: Ancient Greek Martial Arts - the most ancient known? Ancient Pankration Bag (Pig) Training I've been curious as to what might have been the fighting style for ancient Byzantines. In searching for "greek martial arts" I found a style called "Pankration" that is virtually unknown in the US. Here is a very interesting video published this month on "Your Greek News" . Aris Makris, a pankration trainer in Montreal and the subject of the video, claims that Greek martial arts documentation dates back as far as 12000 (yes, 12 thousand) years with legend going back as far as 25000 years, and that this far older than Asian styles touting 2000 years of legend. At the very least, it seems well known that Pankration was introduced to the ancient Greek Olympic games in 648 B.C. Here is what the International Federation of Pankration Athlima has to say about it: "Pankration Athlima is an ancient Olympic Greek martial art and athletic combat sport that was an integral part of the ancient Olympic games for well over 3,000 years . The origin of the sport can be traced to the mythical Greek demi-God
