In Ancient Times, the main Games were taking place at four Cities/States  Olympia, Isthmia, Nemea, Delphi. Today, we have revived only two of them: The Olympian Games (1896) and the Nemea Games (1996). The revival of the Nemean Games were organized first time by Archeologist Professor Stephen Miller of Berkeley University. These Nemean Games take place every four years (1996, 2000, 2004, 2008) and the next one is June 23, 2012. Professor Miller is the one who founded and excavated the ancient stadium, built the Nemea Museum, restored several columns of the Nemea Temple of Zeus and restarted the games. He is working at Nemea since 1974 and by now he is a permanent resident of Nemea City with a Greek Passport.
