Abstrakt: The article presents an encyclopedia entry for performance, which can be defined as an accomplishment or how someone functions during a given task. As sport moved into the modern age between 1820 and 1870 CE, however, performance became linked more heavily with sport success rather than survival. One of the most popular sports in Sumer was lion hunting because it was thought to teach men bravery and prepare them for war.
