The Camel from Alexandria: Egyptian Sources of Ancient Sport*

E. Hübner

Abstrak

Abstract A widespread system of sporting competitions existed in the Mediterranean world of Greco-Roman antiquity. Egypt played an interesting role in these competitions – and ancient Grecian sport had deep roots there. A variety of Egyptian sources, including papyri, stone inscriptions, and pictorial representations, document these sporting practices. This paper is based on a lecture delivered in 2017 for the opening ceremony of the 18th International Society for the History of Physical Education and Sport Congress at the Alexandria Library in Alexandria, Egypt.
