CHANGE OF APPLIED MEANING OF ATHLETIC PRACTICES IN ANCIENT GREEK MILITARY TRADITION (THE VIII-III CENTURIES B.C.)

Abstract. The article examines the relation between the ancient Greek athletism phenomenon and the ancient Greek military tradition. The study is particularly relevant because it is antiquity, which determined the further development of military strategy up to now. And the same antiquity "invented" sport in the interpretation we use at present. These two circumstances resulted in the origin of a specific warfare method typical for city-states that extremely closely associated athletic practices with the military science. So, the paper aims to trace the common origins of these phenomena and to identify the reason for their subsequent divergence.
