Extractions: SPORTS Abody and heart made of steel. A trained body and spirit. A unifying force for the martial arts. These are all the things that the recently resurrected ancient Greek art of unarmed combat, "Pankration Athlima", can offer. One of the oldest sports of the ancient Olympic Games, Pankration hopes to unify all martial arts and become the symbol of a new era in sports, deriving its roots from history. "Martial arts can be united by returning to their roots. The Pankration Athlima offers such unity in order to achieve a common cause. That is what the Olympic Games are about," said Supesh Gopi, from India, one of the 22 national representatives who participated in the founding congress of the International Federation of Pankration Athlima (IFPA), that took place from April 12-17 in Lamia, central Greece. Pankration was first mentioned in the ancient poem "Argonautica", which researchers believe contains information dating back to the 12th millennium BC. Young Greeks used to practice this form of martial art form in most of the city-states of ancient Greece. Pankration is both a sport and, at the same time, an art of war. In fact, ancient amphorae from classical Greece depict images that are very similar to present forms of martial arts, such as karate, Okinawa, kung fu etc. The sport's name is derived from the Greek words, PAN and KRATOS and means, "the one who has the power, the one who wins with total strength and knowledge."
