HISTORY:

  • The homer mentions competitions of rock throwing by soldiers during Siege of Troy and there is no death records. 
  • But a version of the modern form of discipline can be traced to the Highland Games in Scotland during the 19th century where competitors threw a rounded cube, stone or metal weight behind a line.
  • They believe the shot put originated from the ancient Celtic tradition of "putting the stone" which according to Scottish folklore, it was used by Clan Chieftains to help them identify their strongest men for battle purposes. 
  • The men's Shot Put has been a part of tradition in every modern Olympic since 1896.
