Thousands of years ago, there was an ancient civilization that had the name of Ancient Greece. People first settled in this ancient society around 6,500 B.C. We still study this ancient city because they had many great thinkers, artists, and scientists. There was a man named Hippocrates who was the first person to think that sickness was from natural causes, not punishments from the gods. Today, he is often called the father of medicine. The Ancient Greeks are famous for the plays that they wrote about the gods that they believed in. They also created special effects like hoists and wires. The Ancient Greeks were also the people who created the Olympic games. They were originally a festival to honor the Greek god Zeus, the ruler of all the gods and the god of the sky. The Greeks tried out many types of government. There was Oligarchy, monarchy, tyranny, and the two types of Democracy: Representative and Direct.
