Abstract
During the Sacred Truce, the athletes and spectators could trav-el to Olympia in complete safety. Hostile acts were not toler-ated in the region of Elis and no one was allowed to enter it armed. Any violation of the Truce was regarded as an affront to Zeus himself, to whom the entire event was dedicated.
