Is this a run-on sentence?

The laurel is an evergreen tree, the ancient Greeks used laurel leaves in crowns for the winners of the Pythian games.

Yes it’s a run- on sentence. Because they are talking about two different topics instead of one.


Hope this helps

Answer:

Yes, i believe it is.

Step-by-step explanation:

The two separable sentences seem thrown together in an unappealing way. There is no use of connectors like and, but, therefore, or anything like those.
