Framed Print of Ancient Olympic Games, Horse Race
Equestrian events were the most prestigious competitions in the games, due to only the wealthy being able to afford the maintenance and transportation of horses. These races consisted of different events: the four-horse chariot, the two-horse chariot, and the horse with rider. The four-horse chariot was the first equestrian event, introduced in 680 BC. The two-horse chariot was later introduced at Olympia at 408 BC. The horse with rider competition on the other hand, was introduced in 648 BC. In this race, Greeks didn't use saddles or stirrups, so they required good grip and balance. The Olympic Games were a series of athletic competitions among representatives of city-states and one of the Panhellenic Games of Ancient Greece. They were held in honor of Zeus, and the Greeks gave them a mythological origin. The games were held every four years, or olympiad, which became a unit of time in historical chronologies.
