Explanation:

In the given passage from "Perseus," the narrator talks about Greek society and its sporting events. Perseus was one of the competitors of that event where he showcased his strength and ability.

Through the description of what happened during that event, we can know that athletic contests are an integral part of Greek society. And that such events are organized and sponsored by the kings who rule that land. Also, Perseus' participation despite being an outsider means that everyone is welcomed to participate in it and that there are also huge spectators to watch the games. And lastly, discuss throw seems to be a common sporting event in such athletic contests.
