A)

B)
779 BC
C)
802 BC
D)
806 BC

Correct Answer : Option (A) - 776 BC



It seems fairly clear that by the late 8th century nudity was common for the male contestants. Although the ancient Games were staged in Olympia, Greece, from 776 BC through 393 AD, it took 1503 years for the Olympics to return. The first modern Olympics were held in Athens, Greece, in 1896.
