#2
Donal G. Kyle states in his book "Sport and Spectacle in the Ancient World" several Ancient cultures which sed to have some kind of sporting competitions, such as the Mesopotamian Sports, Egyptian pharaohs on the hunt, Minoan, Hittite and Mycenaean contests. Even the Greeks had other games before the Olympics such as funeral games.
