People Wiped Themselves With Stones, Like the Romans, the Greeks would sometimes clean themselves with a sponge attached to a stick—but not every Greek was so lucky. More often, the Greeks would clean themselves with stones.

Athletes Sold Their Sweat. Before competing, Greek athletes would take off all their clothes and cover themselves in oil. That was how they performed. Whether they were running or grappling with another man, Greek athletes would do it naked. Afterward, they would sell sweat as medicine. People would rub the sweat of athletes on their skin. They believed that it calmed aches and pains—which it probably didn’t do particularly well.

Slaves Had To Wear Chastity Belts. Greek slaves would often have to endure something called infibulation. That meant that a metal ring would be wrapped around their genitals.

  1. You didn't know that Laconia -Spartans mercernaries of Alexander the Great stoled or hijacked Alexander's golden war booty ships when he got to India. Antonio Pigaffeta a Venetian scholar uncovered ancient parchment left behind Alexander's tomb together with the body of St.Marks . The Laconia -Spartans mercernaries finally hears the secret that was kept from them for 8-yrs ago there was rebellion in Laconia -Sparta peninsula. Whether, it was an act of revenge instead of bringing the war booty back west to Persian Seas it went East beyond Hindi language barrier. When Antonio Pigaffeta heard a Moluccan native cabin boy who accompanied Portuguese captain spoke Greeks words in his islands beyond the Malaysian peninsula, like the Philippines. The Philippines is the last refuge of Laconian -Spartans mercernaries, more than 25 words in the Tagalog language is of Greek origin, the custom of the "Mano po" and the dish they called Dinuguan or Melos Zomos (Greek) is exclusive among Spartans. And lastly the use of stones still exist the Philippines.
    Antonio Pigaffeta brought these info to the King Carlos of Spain it wasn't for spice islands but Alexander's missing ships of gold. When I heard Greek Macedon armour was found in the Philippines everything made sense 🤔😉.

Wonder where they learned all this from? Ptolomaic Egyptians, who got it frovm the Sumerias, who got it from the Atlantians?😛😜🤪 Atlŕþ665⁸8th
