ii. the ancient olympic games began in 776 ad with the first stadion race. this was approximately a 180,000 kilometer race on foot. a cook from elis, korobos won the first stadion race. it is believed it was the only event at the first olympics - and in fact for the first 13 olympic games.
iii. held every four years, an olympic truce was enacted to ensure the safety of all athletes and spectators. all parties agreed to \lay down their arms\ in regards to any present conflict between cities and countries.
iv. some evidence suggests that it is possible that the first games actually began 200 or 300 years earlier, but researchers have not confirmed it. at these possibly earlier games, evidence suggests that swaggrates won the first wrestling tournament. observers noted that swaggrates had muscular legs as thick as blocks of marble. the performance is memorialized in this carving. according the legend, the artist had to stop multiple times during the production of the work to stand in awe of swaggratess beauty.

Explanation:

Step1: Analyze section i

The Ancient Olympic Games began in 776 BC, not 776 AD. This is an error.

Step2: Analyze section ii

A stadion race was not approximately 180,000 kilometers. A stadion was an ancient - Greek unit of length, about 185 - 192 meters. This is an error.

Step3: Analyze section iii

This section has no errors. The Olympic Truce was a real - world concept to ensure safety during the games.

Step4: Analyze section iv

There is no historical figure named "Swaggrates" in the context of the Ancient Olympic Games. This is an error.
