Explanation:
O utilitarismo foi uma corrente filosófica do século XVIII que exerceu influência determinante sobre o desenvolvimento da teoria econômica dos séculos XIX e XX, de matriz neoclássica. Tendo Jeremy Bentham (1748-1832) como seu principal expoente, o utilitarismo parte da máxima de que toda a motivação humana, em qualquer tempo e lugar, pode ser reduzida a um único princípio: maximizar o prazer e minimizar a dor. Essa máxima, derivada de uma filosofia do indivíduo, tornou-se o paradigma econômico dominante, representado pela escola neoclássica. Sob essa ótica, toda e qualquer análise econômica deveria partir do princípio do indivíduo como agente racional maximizador de prazeres e utilidade. No campo da teoria econômica, o cálculo do máximo prazer torna-se o cálculo do máximo lucro, e esse cálculo é sempre o comportamento esperado e justificado como racional.
Tendo o utilitarismo como fundamentação filosófica da ação individual, essa corrente rejeitou as teorias do valor-trabalho como explicação da formação do valor de troca e do preço das mercadorias, colocando em seu lugar a teoria do valor utilidade.

Answer:
The sporting events at Olympia were the oldest and most important of the four national Greek athletic festivals. The games were held on an official basis every four years from 776 B.C.E., but they probably originated much earlier. Greek myth credited the hero Herakles with devising the running races at Olympia to celebrate the completion of one of his twelve labors.
Olympia was the most important sanctuary of the god Zeus, and the Games were held in his honor. Sacrifices and gifts were offered, and athletes took oaths to obey the rules before a statue of Zeus. The games were announced by heralds traveling to all the major Greek cities around the Mediterranean, and hostilities were banned during the period around the Games to safeguard those traveling to and from Olympia.
The games at Olympia continued with minor interruptions into early Christian times and were the inspiration for the modern Olympic Games, first staged in Athens in 1896.
Equestrian Events
Chariot racing was the most popular spectator sport in ancient times. Up to 40 chariots could compete in a race and crashes were common.
In ancient Greece only the wealthy could afford to maintain a chariot and horses. Chariots had been used to carry warriors into battle, and chariot races, along with other sports events, were originally held at the funeral games of heroes, as described in Homer’s Iliad.
Wealthy citizens and Greek statesmen were anxious to win such a prestigious event. They sometimes drove their own chariot, but usually employed a charioteer. The races took place in an arena called the hippodrome. The most dangerous place was at the turning post, where chariot wheels could lock together and there were many crashes.
