"𝐎𝐥𝐲𝐦𝐩𝐢𝐚" 𝐠𝐨𝐞𝐬 𝐄𝐚𝐬𝐭!

Old history in a digital age. We are noticing a lot of traffic from East Asia on our website www.olympia.co.nl, specifically looking for the book "Olympia" from Theodorus Antonides.

"Olympia" by the Dutchman Theodorus Antonides from 1732 is the oldest (printed) book in the world specifically about the Olympic Games!

It is fascinating to see that a Dutch text from nearly 300 years ago is attracting attention in Asia today. We are very curious: why is this specific work relevant to you right now? Is it for academic research or historical interest?

Please let us know in the comments or send a DM. We would love to solve this mystery!
