The Heraean Games
While the Ancient Greek Olympics may get all the fame, the less famous Heraean games of Ancient Greece were a competition pitting unmarried female athletes against each other in an athletic rite more akin to a bachelorette party for soon-to-be wed women than a spectator sport. For centuries, historians have debated whether the Heraean games even existed at all. So what were these legendary women's sporting events, who competed in them, and why is there such little written evidence of their existence?
