zaridou, Elena Kyrnasiou, Lina Sountri, Anna Plevri, Theodora Siarkou, Georgia Tsangaraki, Daphne Ypsilanti, Avghi Panayotopoulou, Eleni Kousta, Eirini Leontaraki Katerina Kasioumi, Eleni Stamidou, Ino Menegaki, Denise Bonanou, Maria Philippakopoulou, Sunny Hadziargyri, Eleni Garoufalia, Georgina Sofianopoulou, and the young boy Antiochos Evangelatos. The first athlete, Olympic winner Kostas Koukodimos, knelt to receive the sacred Flame from Maria's hands and waited patiently until the priestesses had departed. This marked the start of the biggest flame relay ever staged in Greece, over 2500 km, with 800 runners and 52 ceremonies. For the first time ever, the sacred flame of Olympia visited the Byzantine city of Mystra, the historical city of Sparta, Tegea, the ancient stadium of Nemea, the ancient stadium of Athens, ancient Corinth, the holy city of Missolonghi, Delphi (second time), Plataea, Vergina where, in honour of the Flame, the Archaeological Department opened the tombs of king Philip of Macedon and his son Alexander, Veroia, birthplace of the first IOC President D. Vikelas, Naousa, a heroic Greek city, the city of the cataracts Edessa, Pella with is magnificent mosaics, then Marathon, to finally reach Athens, on April 6 and the Panathenean Stadium where the ceremony of the revival of the modern Olympic Games was held and then on to Rhodes, Crete and Thrace. A series of beautiful ceremonies were staged in 52 Greek cities, each more magnificent than the last, different, divine, heavenly. In all cities the national anthem of the USA was played, the American flag was hoisted and everybody, really everybody was applauding. This is the power of the Flame. It brings people together, it breaks down walls, it eliminates differences, it offers love, it brings the highest good, peace. I will now quote a passage from the speeches of Mrs Ginger Watkins and Mr Charlie Battle. "As we carry this Flame to our country, we shall remember that it is your dream that we gratefully hold in our hands, it is your gift which we shall share with the rest of the world. It is your flame that burns in our souls, it is your ideals that live in our hearts. It is the heritage of Greece, the grandeur of the Greek heritage which we shall celebrate when the world joins us in Atlanta this summer." And in conclusion they said: "We shall take good care of this Flame at every step of its journey." And they added in Greek: "You have told us, prize this Flame like the apple of your eyes and we say to you, we shall prize this Flame like apple of our eyes, because wherever we've been people have told us, "prize this Flame like the apple of your eyes". You understand what the people meant by this. I would have stopped here, with the kind words of the organizers, but I feel that I should quote two phrases from the speech by the Prefect of Pella, Mr G. Panou, which I personally found very touching and which sound like an answer to what distinguished foreigners have said and written about the Flame. "Today, the wind brings back to us the voice of millennia. Today, eternal forms and visions are breathing and living again. Today, the Flame of light, truth, peace, the Greek Flame of Olympia that was born under the Greek sky, now belongs to 159
all mankind." "Like an eternal promise, it brings divine and magic visions of equality, friendship, freedom, fraternity, ideas and values which were uttered, murmured and shouted for the first time by the Greeks and then disseminated, ideas and values which were cultivated, for the first time, by the Greek spirit and made into unique, timeless, incomparable truths". 160
