Archaeology and Sports History |
 | | Journalist and professor of sport, Dr. Labib Boutros, born in 1935 in Beirut (Lebanon), was doctor in pedagogy of sports sciences of the Martin Luther University of Halle (GDR). |
 | | As sport was one of the highest interests of the ancient people, its remains could be widely found in the fields of excavations. |
 | | It is evident that the discovery of sports grounds (such as stadia, gymnasia and palaestrae), equipment and others, in Olympia, Egypt and recently in Phoenicia, gave wide information concerning the history of sport and physical education. |
