Etymology[edit | edit source]

In around BCE 400, the sphairai were introduced in Ancient Greek boxing. The sphairai were very similar to himantes. The only notable difference was that they contained a padded interior when wrapped around the hands and the exterior of the thong was notably more rigid and hard.
