Olympia is one of those places that evokes emotions through the absence of something more than the presence. Time has taken away the noise, the pageantry, the athletes. Many ancient traditions and rituals undoubtedly are lost in time. But if you walk the running paths, if you sit and listen, you can almost hear the distant din.
