The Ancient Olympic Games were held for almost 1200 years until 393 A.D. when Roman Emperor Theodosius I banned all pagan festivals. He asserted that the Games placed an excessive public focus on athletic and spiritual affairs and abolished them. However, the Games were revived in 1894 in modern form and the first Olympic Games were held in 1896.
