Word History

Pale entered Middle English from the Old French word pal, from Latin palus 'stake'. The idea of a stake forming part of a fence or boundary led to the development of the phrase beyond the pale. The term Pale was applied to various English-controlled territories, in particular to the area of Ireland under English jurisdiction before the 16th century. The earliest reference (1547) to the Pale in Ireland as such draws the contrast between the English Pale and the 'wyld Irysh': the area beyond the pale would have been regarded as dangerous and uncivilized by the English.

Wikipedia

Greek wrestling

Greek wrestling (Greek: πάλη, translit. pálē), also known as Ancient Greek wrestling and Pále (πάλη), was the most popular organized sport in Ancient Greece. A point was scored when one player touched the ground with his back, hip or shoulder, or conceding defeat due to a submission-hold or was forced out of the wrestling-area. Three points had to be scored to win the match.

One particularly important position in this form of wrestling was one where one of the contestants was lying on his abdomen with the other on his back trying to strangle him (back mount). The athlete on the bottom would try to grasp an arm of the one on top and turn him over onto his back while the athlete on top would try to complete the choke without being rolled.

Wrestling was the first competition to be added to the Olympic Games that was not a footrace. It was added in 708 B.C. (Miller, 46). The competitions were held in elimination-tournament style until one wrestler was crowned the victor. The wrestling area was one square plethron or stremma. This event was also part of the pentathlon. Wrestling was regarded as the best expression of strength out of all of the competitions and was represented in Greek mythology by Heracles.
