Chariot racing was a standard part of regular athletic competitions in Greece. The 4-horse chariot (quadriga) was raced in the Olympic games of 680 BC. The 2-horse chariot (biga) races were added in 408 BC. Regular horseback races were standard after 648 BC.
Starting in 500 BC, the equine competitions also included mule-drawn wagon races. In 496 BC, the kalpe was added. It was a race for mares where the rider dismounted during the final lap and ran beside his horse. These were dropped from the Olympics in 444 BC, leaving only the horse-drawn chariot and ridden-horse events.

Hellenistic culture was the culture that resulted from the <em>mix of Greek and local elements.</em> Historians mark the beginning of Hellenistic with Alexander the Great.
As you may know, Alexander the Great was a huge conquerer. He spread his reign and culture from<em> Asia to Africa</em>. This means that he took with him <em>elements of greek culture but mixed it with the culture of other people, such as Persians</em>. Alexander married Persian women and also <em>stimulated his soldiers to do so.</em> This also means that the descendants of Alexander’s soldiers would grow up with both <em>Persian and Hellenistic culture.</em>
Because of this, you can see the difference between Early Hellenistic Art and Hellenistic Art later - after the mix of culture. Early Art was full of concepts of <em>Greek gods, filled with the idea of perfection and idealistic art. </em>After the advance of Alexander, Hellenistic Art changed completely. It focused more on the individual that lived in this huge empire, so art looked more realistic, showing people how they were including their flaws.
