Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jim Arvanitis, internationally-renowned as the Father of Modern Pankration and MMA pioneer, presents an in-depth analysis of this ancient fighting art and its contemporary derivative. Pankration is one of the oldest martial arts on record and the first to integrate striking, grappling, and submission techniques. The book examines the tactics and training methodologies traceable to the earliest Olympic Games to their adaptation by the author in the Twentieth Century. Also discussed is pankration's development from its mythological roots to the sport's inclusion in the Panhellenic festivals, and dynamic rebirth after it had vanished for several thousand years. Hundreds of lavish artifacts and photos depict one-on-one combat action throughout the text. Greek pankration is the only fully-documented total fighting system of the Pre-Christian era and the missing link in martial arts evolution.
