[2467] Inscribed base found: see Inschr. v. Ol., 144; I. G. B., 23; I. G. A., 1882, 388.

[2469] Strabo, VI, 1.5 (= C. 255); Aelian, Var. Hist., VIII, 18; Suidas, s. v. Εὔθυμος; P., VI, 6. 7–11. Cf. also E. Curtius on the Olympia base, A. Z., XXXVI, 1878, p. 83, no. 127. On the legend of the statue, see Eusebios, Praep. evang., V, 34.7.
[2470] Theagenes won πύξ in Ol. 75 ( = 480 B. C.): P., VI, 6.5; Oxy.Pap.; and παγκράτιον in Ol. 76 ( = 476 B. C.): P., VI, 11.4; Oxy. Pap.; he was twice περιοδονίκης and won many victories elsewhere, carrying off 1400 crowns, according to P., VI, 11.5, and 1200, according to Plut., Praec. reipub. ger., 15, p. 811 D. Cf. Rutgers, pp. 36, 38; Foerster, 191, 196; Hyde, 104. Dio Chrys., Orat., XXXI, p. 339 M, wrongly mentions three Olympic victories.

[2475] Ladas won δόλιχος in Ol. (?) 76 ( = 476 B. C.): Robert, O. S., p. 165, because of an older dating for Myron, 480–444 B. C., necessitated by the Oxy. Pap. (see also ibid., p. 184). Foerster, 249, has given Ol. (?) 85 ( = 440 B. C.) as the date of the victory, on the basis of the earlier dating of Myron, 460–420 B. C.; cf., e. g., Brunn, 1, p. 142; Bergk, P. l. G., III, p. 473, no 125 and note, and Rutgers p. 107.
