http://www.explorecrete.com/nature/olive-oil-history.html?The winner’s prize varied according to the event. The best runner received about 70 amphoras of 35-40 kilos, i.e. 2,500 kilos of olive oil, while the chariot-race winner got double, i.e. about 5,000 kilos. These prizes were worth a lot of money if you consider that a day’s wages for an Athenian craftsman was 1 Attic drachma, the equivalent of about 3 kilos of olive oil. And that was just the price of common oil, whereas the winner’s oil was much better quality and more expensive. Of course no-one would buy this oil to eat; instead it was used for anointing the bodies of rich young athletes."
"Olive oil was also a valuable winner’s prize. The city of Athens needed about 70,000 kilos of oil to reward the winners of the Panathenian Games, held every four years.
i love how it says in the quote no one would eat the olive oil , WHAT A LOAD OF SHIZZLE! hahah its obvious they fuckin drank it and wacked off with it . in those days they were freaks but big ass hercules was definitly drinking the olive oil and the athletes and superior ones in greece !
