Top Two Rows - Areas near the ancient Temple of
Zeus, and near where the Olympic flame is first lit for each Olympiad.
Bottom Row - The world's first Olympic Stadium, where ancient footraces
over a distance of 1 stadia (about 190 yards) were conducted. Eric is
standing at the finish line (I believe).
Top Row - Some statues and artifacts inside the archaeological museum at the Olympia
site.
Bottom Row - Ancient Roman and/or Greek helmets; model of what the
ancient site may have looked like (with stadium at the lower right and Temple of
Zeus near the middle).
