and _Mw._, p. 468, n. 4, who mentions it, believes that these gems
correspond more nearly with the Dresden than with the Petworth athlete
type.
[1048] The strigil was a curved blade hollowed out inside with both
edges sharp; the general form remained largely the same from the sixth
century B. C., down into Roman days, though the curve and the handle
changed. The commonest were of bronze or iron: see Dar.-Sagl., IV,
2, pp. 1532 f., _s. v._ _strigilis_ (S. Dorigny); K. Friederichs,
_Kleinere Kunst und Industrie im Altertum_, 1871, pp. 88 f. Examples
in the Metropolitan Museum, New York, are given by Richter, in _Gk.,
Etr. and Rom. Bronzes_, nos. 855 f.; others (strigils and handles)
are in the British Museum: _B. M. Bronzes_, nos. 320-326, 665, and
2420-2454, and figs. 74-75, p. 319; on the operation, see Kuppers, _Der
Apoxyomenos des Lysippos_, 1874.

from Bologna), 179 (athlete on B. M. vase mentioned above, E. 83, third
figure from left, middle row), 180 (cup in Rome, Museo Gregoriano), 181
(jug, _ibid._); Hartwig, pp. 153-4, mentions an athlete on a cup in the
Museo Papa Giulio, Rome. For the motive of an apoxyomenos on a vase in
the Louvre, see Hartwig, _Die greich. Meisterchalen_, pp. 24 f. and
fig. 2a.

adds two more gems showing an athlete in a similar position, in the
Boston Museum of Fine Arts: p. 155, figs. 183, 184. Here the youth,
as Hartwig against the interpretation of Furtwaengler makes clear, is
cleansing the strigil and not his body.

Phil. Wochenschr._, XVII, Jan. 2, 1897, p. 31, corrects the mistake of
Furtwaengler and Amelung that the athlete on the gem is cleansing the
thigh and not the strigil itself.
[1059] Arndt dates it about 400 B. C.; Furtwaengler ascribes it and
the Dresden torso of the _Oil-pourer_, already discussed, to an Attic
master of the end of the fifth or beginning of the fourth century B. C.

the head and torso are of different marbles, we really have parts of
two copies of the same original. In reconstructing the statue, another
copy in the Galleria delle Statue is better: Amelung, _Vat._, II, pp.
583 f., no. 392 and Pl. 56; it has a head of Septimius Severus upon
it; the position of its feet is almost exactly that of the statue of
Xenokles mentioned.

_Oil-pourer_ of Munich and the _Standing Diskobolos_ of the Vatican,
which Brunn had called Myronic. He later, however, renounced his
Myronic theory and merely called it Attic, because of its resemblance
to figures on the Parthenon frieze: _Beilage zu den amtlichen Berichten

(_Zeitschr. fuer Alterthumswissensch._, 1845, p. 962), and was
followed by Brunn (I, p. 261)—an emendation accepted by most recent
investigators. The argument derived from the _Amazon_ of Kresilas,
mentioned by Pliny, XXXIV, 53, and apparently repeated in the present
passage, is strong. Jex-Blake, however, finds the name Ktesilaos a good
Greek formation, though uncommon: see his note on p. 62.
[1101] _Mp._, pp. 161 f.; _Mw._, pp. 332 f.
[1102] It is plainly visible in the example from Petworth House, and in

it is also visible in the New York copy.
[1103] As on an Attic fifth-century B. C. grave-relief from the
Peiræus: Staïs, _Marbres et Bronzes_, p. 157 (who gives the height as
0.45 meter and the breadth as 0.32 meter); von Sybel, _Kat. d. Skulpt.
zu Athen_, 1881, no. 171; _Annali_, XXXIV, 1862, p. 212; Conze, _Die
Attischen Grabreliefs_, no. 929 and Pl. CLXXX; F. W., 1017; for similar
reliefs, see _Annali_, 1862, Pl. M.

C.; Brunn first recognized its fifth-century character: _Annali_,

[1114] See Stephanos, _Lex._, _s. vv._ ταινία, ταινίδιον, ταινόω. This
victor fillet is mentioned by Lucian in reference to the _Diadoumenos_
of Polykleitos: _Philops._, 18.
[1115] Xen., _Symp._, V, 9; Plato, _Symp._, 212 E; it appears often
on statues of Dionysos: _e. g._, on one in Furtwaengler’s _Samml.
Sabouroff_, Pl. XXIII; Dionysos is called Χρυσομίτρης in Soph., _Oed.
Tyr._, 209. The fillet was used as a breast-band for women’s dresses:
Pollux, VII, 65; etc.
[1116] _J. H. S._, I, 1880, p. 177. In older days the athletic fillet
was called μίτρα (Lat. _mitella_): Pindar, _Ol._, IX, 84; _Isthm._,
V, 62 (of wool); Boeckh, _Explic. ad Pind._, p. 193. In the Iliad
μίτρα was the kilt or apron worn around the waist under the cuirass
(a ζωστήρ being worn outside): IV, 137; IV, 187; V, 857; etc. It was
used also later as a wrestler’s girdle: _A. G._, XV, 44; and for
women’s headbands: Alkm., I; _cf._ Eurip., _Bacchae_, 833. Athletes on
vase-paintings representing palæstra scenes often wear the fillet: _e.
g._, the wrestlers and other athletes on the Philadelphia r.-f. kylix
pictured in Fig. 50, have red bands in their hair. Later the μίτρα
was specially used of women; if of men, it was a sign of effeminacy:
Aristoph., _Thesmophoriazusae_, 163. The home of the μίτρα appears to
have been Asia, as it was commonly worn by Asiatics: see Hdt., I, 195;
VII, 62 (headdress); Virgil, _Aen._, IV, 216. We learn from Alkman
that it came from Lydia to Greece: fragm. 23, verses 67 f. On it, see
Bekker, _Charikles_, II, pp. 393 f., and Pauly-Wissowa, VII, 2, p. 2033
(Bremer).
[1117] See F. W., on 322. It appears on the “Apollo” type of early
sculpture, _e. g._, on the “Apollo” of Orchomenos (Fig. 7).

followed by Kalkmann, _Pausanias der Perieget_, 1886, pp. 90 f.
[1132] _Cf._ Frazer, IV, p. 11. Figures of athletes appear beneath the
throne on vases: Overbeck, _Griech. Kunstmythol._, Pl. I, 9 and 16;
Gerhard, I, Pl. VII. Flasch has tried to show that the throne figure
did not represent Pantarkes: Baum., II, p. 1099, 2; _cf._ Gurlitt,
_Ueber Pausanias_, 1890, p. 380.
[1133] VI, 10.6. Pantarkes won the boys’ wrestling match in Ol. 86 (=
436 B. C.): Hyde, 98; Foerster, 254.
[1134] Amongst others it has been assumed by Loeschke, Der Tod des
Pheidias (in _Histor. Untersuch. zum Schaefer-Jubilaeum_, Bonn, 1882),
p. 36; Schoell, _Sitzb. Muen. Akad._, 1888, I, p. 37 (Der Prozess des
Pheidias). Foerster, p. 19, n. 1, is against the identification. The
παῖς ἀναδούμενος is omitted in my victor lists (_de olympionicarum
Statuis_).
[1135] The παῖς ἀναδούμενος is mentioned between victors nos. 38 and 39,
_i. e._, in the Zone of the _Eretrian Bull_, while Pantarkes (98) is
mentioned among the statues in the Zone of the _Chariots_: see _infra_,
Ch. VIII, pp. 343 and 345, and Plans A and B.

Reinach, _Rép._, I, 524, 2. The palm-trunk shows that the Roman artist
intended to represent a victor in his copy. It is 4 ft. 10.25 in. high
(Smith); 1.48 meters (Bulle).
[1139] Brunn, following older writers such as Winckelmann, had
pronounced it Polykleitan: _Annali_, LI, 1879, pp. 218 f.; _cf._
Murray, I, pp. 313 f. and Pl. IX. Kekulé called it Myronian: _49stes
Berl. Winckelmannsprogr._, 1889, p. 12; Gardner, _Sculpt._, p. 128,
finds it unrelated to Polykleitos and defends its Attic origin.
Everything about it—except the mode of tying the fillet—differs from
the copies of Polykleitos’ statue, and especially the pose. Against
Brunn’s view, see Michaelis, _Annali_, LV, 1883, pp. 154 f.
[1140] So Bulle, Arndt (text to B. B., 271), Furtwaengler (_Mp._,
pp. 244-5; _Mw._, pp. 444-5), Zimmerman (in Knackfuss-Zimmermann,
_Kunstgesch. des Altertums und des Mittelalters_, I, p. 152), and many
others.
[1141] _Cf._ especially the resemblance of the statue to the youth on
the West frieze: Michaelis, _Der Parthenon_, Pl. V, no. 9.
[1142] Pliny, _H. N._, XXXIV, 55, praises it equally with the
_Doryphoros_, and says that 100 talents were paid for it; in another
passage he says that a like sum was paid by King Attalos for a picture
of Dionysos by the Theban painter Aristeides: _ibid._, VII, 126; _cf._
XXXV, 24 and 100. A painting by Timomachos of Byzantium brought 80
talents: _ibid._, XXXV, 136.
[1143] _H. N._, XXXIV, 56; here he quotes Varro, who was drawing
probably from Xenokrates of Sikyon: see Jex-Blake, pp. xvi f.

Aristoph., _Plut._, 586; Theophr., _Hist. Plant._, IV, 13.2. The custom
of using the olive crown is probably very ancient, despite Phlegon’s
statement that it was introduced in Ol. 7 (= 752 B. C.): frag. 1 (= _F.
H. G._, III, p. 604). Pindar says that it was introduced from the land
of the Hyperboreans by Herakles: _Ol._, III, 14 f; Bacchylides calls it
Aetolian: VII, 50 (γλαυκὸν Αἰτωλίδος ἄνδημ’ ἐλαίας). It probably goes
back to some form of popular magic.

_Archaeol. Studien H. Brunn dargebr._, 1893, pp. 62 f.
[1163] The λημνίσκος (Lat. _lemniscus_) was merely the woolen fillet
by which chaplets were fastened on; Hesychios says it is a Syracusan
word; in any case it is used only by Roman writers and Greek writers of
the Roman age; _A. G._, XII, 123; Plut., _Sulla_, 27; Polyb., XVIII,
46 (where στέφανοι and λημνίσκοι are differentiated, though they are
usually interchangeable); _C. I. G._, III, 5361; _C. I. A._, III, 74.
Pliny says that it was of Etruscan origin, _H. N._, XXI, 4, and that
it was at first made of wool or linden-bark and later of gold; _cf._
XVI, 25. It was used at Rome at feasts, as a sign of special honor to
guests: Plaut., _Pseudolus_, (line 1265); Livy, XXXIII, 33.2; Suet.,
_Nero_, 25. For the Roman use of the _lemniscus_ for athletic victors
and poets, _cf._ Cicero, _Or. pro Sext. Roscio Amerino_, 35, 100;
Ausonius, _Epist._, XX, 6; etc. On the _lemniscus_, see Dar.-Sagl.,

in _J. H. S._, XXXI, 1911, Pl. II, we have the Westmacott, Barracco,
and Eleusis copies together. Furtwaengler, _Mp._, pp. 250 f., _Mw._,
pp. 453 f., Helbig, _Cat. Coll. Barracco_, p. 36, and Petersen, _R.
M._, VIII, 1893, pp. 101 f., have added many more torsos and heads as
copies or variants of the original.
[1169] See Helbig, _Fuehrer_, I, 1083. Its soft expression and forms
led Furtwaengler to derive it from the Praxitelean circle, from the
period when Praxiteles was influenced by Polykleitos, and to believe
that it represented a divinity, perhaps Triptolemos: _Mp._, p. 255 and
n. 2.

_op. cit._
[1179] _E. g._, by Philios (_op. cit._), Amelung (_Bert. Phil.
Wochenschr._, XXII, 1902, p. 273). This scraping motive is seen in the
bronze statuette in the Bibliothèque Nationale, no. 934.
[1180] This is inconsistent with the position of the hand in the
Barracco copy, which is too far from the head. This was an older view
of Helbig, _Rendiconti della Reale Accad. dei Lincei_, 1892, pp. 790
f.; refuted by Furtwaengler, Petersen, Helbig himself later (in the
_Fuehrer_), and others.
[1181] Quoted by E. A. Gardner, _J. H. S._, XXXI, pp. 25-6, as the
theory of E. N. Gardiner.

[1186] VI, 4.11; _Inschr. v. Ol._, 149; _I. G. B._, 50.
[1187] Those of the Elean pentathlete Pythokles: _Inschr. v. Ol._,
162-3; _I. G. B._, 91; and the Epidaurian boxer Aristion: _Inschr. v.
Ol._, 165 (renewed); _I. G. B._, 92. The feet of the Aristion were both
flat upon the ground.
[1188] That of the boy wrestler Xenokles of Mainalos: _Inschr. v. Ol._,
164; _I. G. B._, 90.
[1189] In one of the Olympia _Zanes_: _I. G. B._, 95.
[1190] On the Kyniskos basis there are no traces, as on that of
Pythokles, to show that the original had been removed from the Altis
and replaced by a copy long before Pausanias visited Olympia.
[1191] _O. S._, p. 186, on the basis of the _Oxy. Pap._; followed
by Hyde, 45. Foerster’s date, Ol. (?) 86 (= 436 B. C.), follows the
earlier dating of Polykleitos by Robert, _Arch. Maerchen_, 1886, p.
107, _i. e._, before the discovery of the Oxyrhynchus Papyrus; see
Foerster, 255. Robert later dated the birth of the sculptor about Ol.
75.4 (= 477 B. C.). Thus, even if the _Kyniskos_ were his earliest
statue, it must have been erected some time after the victory.
Furtwaengler dates the original of the _Westmacott Athlete_ about 440
B. C.: _Mp._, p. 252.
[1192] Bulle, Furtwaengler, E. A. Gardner, and others find the
assumption of identity not completely convincing. Thus Furtwaengler
looks upon the identification as “no far-fetched theory,” but says:
“Unfortunately, however, absolute certainty can scarcely be attained”
(_Mp._, pp. 249-50).
[1193] VIII, 48.2; _cf._ Vitruv., _de Arch._, IX, 1 (p. 212).
[1194] Homer mentions the palm: _e. g._, Od., VI, 163; the various
kinds of palm are given by Theophr., _Hist. Plant._, II, 6.6 and 8.4.
Its fronds (σπάθαι, _cf._ Hdt., VII, 69) were formed into victory
crowns: Plut., _Quaest. conviv._, VIII, 4, p. 723.

[1202] Mentioned by Helbig, _Guide_, 977; discussed by Arndt in _La
Glyptothèque Ny-Carlsberg_, text to Pls. XXI-IV. Arndt believes that
the right arm with the palm in the hand is modern, like the head and
left arm; they are of a different marble from the torso. The torso
is a replica of a statue in the Villa Albani, Rome: _op. cit._, fig.
13; _cf._ Furtwaengler, _Mw._, p. 738 (= god type). On representing
athletes in the act of placing wreaths on their heads with the right
hand and holding palm-branches in the left, see Milchhoefer, and

ascription: Pauly-Wissowa, VI, p. 1493. Liddell and Scott, _Lexicon_,
_s. v._ Φρικίας (= “Bristle”), believe this to be the name not of the
victor but of his horse, so called because of his long outstanding
mane; _cf_. Herrmann, _Opuscula_, VII, 166 n. This is also the
interpretation of Sandys, _Odes of Pindar_, Loeb Library, 1915, p. 291,

[1221] Hauser, _Jb._, II, 1887, p. 101, n. 24, points out its
resemblance to the Tuebingen bronze, but because of the tree-trunk does
not regard it as a representation of a hoplitodrome. Furtwaengler, _l.

it alien thereto.

statue, copies of which are in Kassel (Furtw., _Mp._, p. 246, fig.
99; _Mw._, p. 447, fig. 69), and on a headless one in Lansdowne House
(Michaelis, p. 438, no. 3; Clarac, 851, 2180 A); similarly on the
Lysippan boxer by Koblanos found at Sorrento, and now in Naples (Fig.
57; Kalkmann, Die Proport, des Gesichts in d. gr. Kunst = _53stes Berl.

from Herculaneum in Naples; and on the delle Terme _Seated Boxer_ (Pl.
16); etc.
[1232] So interpreted, and rightly, by Waldstein (_J. H. S._, I, 1880,
p. 186), and others; Juethner, pp. 68-9, thinks that the object here
represented is a victor fillet, being too short for thongs.

[1236] We have already in the present chapter mentioned this “Apollo”
in connection with the statuette from Piombino (Fig. 19); Studniczka,
_R. M._, II, 1887, pp. 99-100, believed that it represented a victor.
See _supra_, p. 119.
[1237] _E. g._, on the bronze statuette from Naxos, now in Berlin: see
_supra_, p. 119 and n. 5.
[1238] Boy wrestlers especially wore caps in the palæstræ, but not at
the games; we see them on the wrestler group in the palæstra scene on
the r.-f. kylix in Munich (no. 795) already mentioned.
[1239] Stuart Jones, _Cat._, pp. 65-6, no. 8; Helbig, _Fuehrer_,
I, 769; _Guide_, 418; B. B., 527 (and fig. 6 in text, by Arndt);
Furtw., _Mp._, p. 204, _Mw._, p. 392. Helbig finds it Myronian, while
Furtwaengler considers it Attic, but non-Myronic; for a copy in
Stockholm, see B. B., figs. 7, 8, 9, in the text to no. 527.
[1240] I, 17.2. Furtw., _Mp._, p. 204, n. 6, shows that the Athens head
bears no resemblance to the Capitoline. Furthermore, heads on coins of
Juba differ from both and show no trace of the complicated head-dress.
A marble head from Shershel (= Cæsarea) seems to be an authentic
portrait of Juba II: see _Annali_, XXIX, 1857, Pl. E, no. 2, and p.
194; and Waille, _de Caesareae Monumentis_, 1891, title page (vignette)
and p. 92 (quoted by Helbig, _Guide_, _l. c._).

[1242] Helbig, _Fuehrer_, I, 972; _Guide_, 595; _B. Com. Rom._, XII,
1884, Pl. XXIII, pp. 245-253. The meaning is explained by a similar
archaistic Parian marble relief in Wilton House, Wiltshire, England,
where the youth stands before a statue of Zeus, washing his hands
preparatory to making a thank-offering to the god who gave him victory:
see Michaelis, p. 680, no. 48 and wood-cut on p. 681; Arndt, _La Glypt.
Ny-Carlsberg_, text, fig. 33; F. W., 239; its inscription is not
genuine. The same archaistic traits are seen on a votive relief to Zeus
Xenios in the Museo delle Terme: Helbig, _Fuehrer_, II, 1405; Arndt,
_op. cit._, fig. 34; this is to be dated in the first century B. C., or
A. D., because of its inscription: _I. G. Sic. et Ital._, no. 990.

[1246] Thus Furtwaengler calls the Ince-Blundell head that of a boxer
statue: _Mp._, p. 173, and fig. 71 on p. 172; _Mw._, p. 348, and fig.
44 on p. 347.

περιειλίττονται καὶ φιλογυμναστοῦσι καὶ βραχείας ἀναβολὰς φοροῦσιν,
κ. τ. λ. The boxer’s swollen ears are mentioned by Theokritos, XXII,
45. The word ὠτοκάταξις seems to have meant a boxer whose ears were
battered by the gloves: Aristoph., _Fragm._, 72; Pollux, II, 83
(whence Dindorf corrects the form ὠτοκαταξίας in Poll., IV, 144). For
references, see Krause, I, pp. 516-17; and _cf._ _J. H. S._, XXVI, p.

do not occur on other copies, they are here doubtless a modification by
a late artist.

[1262] _Cat. Class. Coll._, pp. 228 f.; fig. 141 on p. 231. Miss
Richter points out its affinity to the _Hermes_ and assigns it to the
immediate influence of Praxiteles. This fragment of a statue appears
to have been trimmed into its present shape in modern times. Miss
Richter’s statement (p. 230) that swollen ears are a characteristic
which applies in representations of heroes to Herakles alone is
contradicted by what we shall say below about heads of Diomedes.

(without the base).

and now in the Palazzo dei Conservatori there. B. Graef, _R. M._, IV,
1889, p. 189 f, and Pls. VIII (Capitoline bust) and IX (Quirinal bust),
attributes the type to Skopas; he is followed by Collignon, II, p. 240,
n. 1; _cf._ S. Reinach, _Gaz. d. B-A._, 3d Per., III, 1890, pp. 338 and
340. Wolters tried to show that it was Praxitelian. But the similarity
between these heads and that of the _Lansdowne Herakles_ (Pl. 30 and
fig. 71), which we ascribe to Lysippos in Ch. VI, pp. 298, 311, is
easily apparent.

1889, pp. 215 and 202) have shown the Polykleitan origin of the type.
The former believes that it may have been copied from a statue of
Herakles by the master, which is mentioned by Pliny (_H. N._, XXXIV,
56) as at Rome. For other replicas of the type, see Furtw., _Mp._, p.

artifices his statibus in statuis ponendis uterentur, in quibus
victoriam essent adepti_; _cf._ Diod., XV, 33, 4 (who speaks of
“statues”). This statue was erected in Athens after his campaign to
aid Thebes against Agesilaos in 378 B. C.: Xen., _Hell._, V, 4.38 f.
(though here Chabrias is not mentioned by name); Diod., XV, 32-33;
Demosth., _Contra Lept._, 75-76 (p. 479); _cf._ Aristotle, _Rhet._,
III, 10.7. Chabrias seems to have been the first to order his troops to
assume a kneeling posture when receiving the charge of the enemy. These
tactics when used against Agesilaos were so favorably regarded by the
Athenians that his statues were represented in the attitude of kneeling.
[1279] _E. g._, Reisch, p. 43.
[1280] See Joubin, p. 46. It probably took place under the restored
democracy of Kleisthenes. The assassination of Hipparchos took place in
514 B. C. Pliny, _H. N._, XXXIV, 17, says that the group was set up in
the year in which the kings were expelled from Rome (= 509 B. C.).

[1284] _A. M._, XV, 1890, pp. 1 f.; followed by Overbeck, I, pp. 152
f.; Frazer, II, p. 98. The difference is not only noticeable in the
head structure and treatment of the hair, but in the whole character of
the work. While Antenor’s work is stiff and lifeless, the Naples group
is full of vigor. For the statue of Antenor (in the Akropolis Museum),
see _Ant. Denkm._, I, 5, 1890, Pl. 53, and pp. 42 f. (Wolters);

[1285] However, some archæologists still favor Antenor for this group:
_e. g._, Wachsmuth, _Die Stadt Athen_, I, pp. 170 f.; II, 393-8;

an _Artemis_ by Homolle (because of its resemblance to the so-called
Oriental winged _Artemis_ on a bronze relief from Olympia, von Mach,
text, opp. p. 36, fig. 5), it has generally been called a _Nike_ since
its first ascription by Furtwaengler (_A. Z._, XL, 1882, pp. 324 f.),
and brought into connection with a base in two parts found near the
statue on Delos in 1880 and 1881, inscribed with the names of Archermos
and his father Mikkiades. If the connection with the base were certain,
the statue should be referred to the beginning of the sixth century
B. C.; B. Sauer (_A. M._, XVI, 1891, pp. 182 f.), and others, have
disputed the connection.

83 (right). As the figure is only 0.143 meter tall, it seems to have
decorated the rim of a bronze bowl. It may be later than the Tuebingen
bronze (Fig. 42) and is certainly of a different school. The presence
of a breastplate proves that it is meant for a warrior and not for a
hoplitodrome.

[1315] Reisch, p. 43, n. 4, wrongly assumed this to be one of the
oldest statues of Pythagoras, since the same sculptor made the statue
of the son Kratisthenes; but the son’s victory was probably only two
Olympiads later than that of the father, as we have seen.

[1334] Brunn, pp. 133-4, connected _Libyn_ and _puerum_, and believed
that only one statue was meant by Pliny’s sentence, identical with
Pausanias’ statue of Mnaseas. Stuart Jones, _Select Passages from Anc.
Writers Illustrative of the History of Gk. Sculpt._, 1895, p. 57, makes
two alterations in Pliny’s text, inserting _et_ between _Libyn_ and
_puerum_, and replacing _tabellam_ of the MSS. with _flagellum_. The
boy holding the whip, then, is Mnaseas’ son Kratisthenes, the chariot
victor mentioned by P., VI, 18.1. Stuart Jones follows Furtwaengler
(_Jahrbuecher fuer Class. Philol._, 1876, p. 509) in having Pliny
translate παῖδα of his Greek authority by _puerum_ instead of _filium_.

[1340] Ancient writers differed as to the authorship of the statue.
Thus P. (I, 33.3), Mela (_de Situ orbis_, II, 3.6), Tzetzes (S. Q.,
838-9), and Zenobios (_l. c._), say that it was Pheidias, while Pliny
(_H. N._, XXXVI, 17) and Strabo (IX, I. 17, C. 396) say Agorakritos. A
fragment of the colossal head of the statue came to the British Museum
in 1820: _B. M. Sculpt._, I, p. 460; also fragments of the figure on
the base, described by P., I, 33.7, were found in 1890 and are now in
the National Museum in Athens: Kabbadias, 203-14; Frazer, II, p. 457,

[1342] _Archaeolog. Analekten_, 1885, p. 9. Lucian, _Anachar._, 9, says
that apples formed a part of the Delphic prize; Dromeus is also known
to us as a Pythian victor. In _Chrest. Plin._, p. 320, L. von Urlichs
had identified the _nudus_ as Meilanion or Hippomenes with the apples
with which he had beaten Atalanta; see _S. Q._, § 499, note a.
[1343] _H. N._, XXXIV, 59: _Syracusis autem claudicantem, cuius ulceris

Lessing, _Laokoön_, Ch. 2, identified it with a wounded Philoktetes:
see Bluemner, _Comm. zu Lessing’s Laokoön_, pp. 508 f.; the words
_cuius ... videntur_ seem to have been derived from _A. Pl._, IV, 112,
1.4 (which refers to a bronze statue of Philoktetes): _cf._ Brunn, p.
134 and Jex-Blake, _ad loc._

[1346] In the Plinian passage Leontiskos figures rather as an artist,
probably through Pliny’s misunderstanding of some Greek sentence in his
authority; see L. von Urlichs, _Rheinisches Museum_, XLIV, 1889, p. 261.

[1350] Marble copy of the _Marsyas_ was found in 1823 on the Esquiline
and is now in the Lateran Museum, Rome: Helbig, _Fuehrer_, II, 1179;
Rayet, I, Pl. 33; B. B., 208; Bulle, 95; von Mach, 65a; Baum., II, p.

Reinach, _Rép._, II, 1, 15, 6. It is 1.95 meters high (Bulle). It is
wrongly restored and only the head can be considered approximately
faithful to the original. _Cf._ another copy of the head of Parian
marble in the Museo Barracco, Rome: Helbig, I, 1104; Reinach, _Têtes_,
pp. 53 f. and Pls. LXVI-LXVII; F. W., 455. A fourth-century B. C.
bronze statuette from Patras, now in the British Museum, appears also
to give the motive of the original group in Athens mentioned by Pliny,

Athena in Dresden, see B. B., 591 (three views).
[1351] Walter Pater, in his _Greek Studies_ (in the essay on The Age of
Athletic Prizemen), ed. 1895, pp. 309 f., calls the _Diskobolos_ a work
of _genre_. However, the _Diskobolos_ can hardly be called a decorative
statue, _i. e._, “a work merely imitative of the detail of actual
life.” On p. 313 he rightly classes the _Doryphoros_ as an “academic”
work.
[1352] It was formerly in the Palazzo Massimi alla Colonna, and hence
is often called the Massimi _Diskobolos_: B. B., no. 567, _cf._ 256

statues represented victor and charioteer, and that they stood upon
the quadriga, which Pausanias does not mention. I follow Robert, _O.

victor in the two events.

[1374] Mayer, in _A. M._, XVI, 1891, pp. 246 f., showed that on
vase-paintings of Myron’s time and on coins of Elaia, Aeolis, a woman
is often represented as standing in the chest, while two men, Perseus
and the carpenter, stand beside it.
[1375] _E. g._, the statue of the boy boxer Athenaios of Ephesos was
represented in motion, _i. e._, in the act of sparring, as we see from
the footprints on the recovered base: _Inschr. v. Ol._, 168; he won

in these contests were probably aged 12-16, the ἀγένειοι, 16-20 (_cf._

[1385] Bussemaker, in Dar.-Sagl., I, Pt. 1, _s. v._ _athleta_, p. 517
(also quoted by Pottier), proposed the division into παῖδες, 12-16
years old, ἀγένειοι, 16-20, and ἄνδρες, from 20 on. Pollux, VIII, 105,
and Harpokration, _s. v._ ἐπιδιετές, give the ephebe age as 18-20;
Xen., _Cyr._, 1, 2.8, puts the age at 16 or 17 for the Persians.

[1390] Thus Apollo beat Hermes in running at Olympia, P., V, 7.10;
the Idæan Herakles instituted a race among his brothers, P., V,
7.7; and Endymion set his sons to run, and so instituted the boys’
running race there, P., V, 1.4. The running race appears in the Boread
legend, Ph.,3; pseudo-Dio Chrysost., XXXVII, p. 296 (Dindorf); it was
represented on the Kypselos chest: P., V, 17.10, and appears on many
archaic vases. On the age of the event, see Grasberger, _Erziehung und
Unterricht_, I, 1864, p. 310 and III, 1881, p. 199. The Cretans and the
Lacedæmonians sacrificed to Apollo δρομαῖος: Plut., _Quaest. conviv._,
VIII, 4.4.
[1391] See Ph., 3, for the four running races; _cf._, Plato, _de Leg._,
833 A, B.
[1392] Iliad, XXIII, 740 f.; Od., VIII, 120 f. (in l. 121 it is
called δρόμος). In some historic games, the stade-race remained the
only event; _e. g._, at the _Hermaia_ on Salamis: _C. I. G._, I, 108.

antiquity of the event is corroborated by Plutarch, _Quaest. conviv._,
V, 2.12, Ph. (= only event until Ol. 14), and Eusebios, _Chronika_, I,
p. 193 (ed. Schoene). Gardiner, p. 52, believes that if the Olympic
games developed from a single event, it was probably not from the
stade-race, but from either the fight in armor or the chariot-race.

to the fourth by Winter, Collignon, and von Mach; Collignon, II,
pp. 359 f., connects it stylistically with the so-called _Ilioneus_
of the Glyptothek, represented in a similar pose (= Furtw.-Wolters,
_Beschr._,^2 270; B. B., 432; F. W., 1263), and with the _Hypnos_ in
the Prado, Madrid (= Huebner, _Die ant. Bildw. in Madrid_, no. 39;
Furtw., _Mw._, pp. 648 f.; Collignon, II, p. 357, fig. 181; F. W.,
1287; for small replicas in bronze, see Winnefeld, _Hypnos_, p. 8, n.
2), and assigns all three to the fourth century B. C. and to Skopaic
art. Amelung assigns the Subiaco youth to Hellenistic times: _Mus. and
Ruins of Rome_, I, fig. 60.
[1432] For a list of ten such interpretations, see de Ridder, _Rev.
arch._, XXXI, Sér. 3, 1897, p. 265, n. 5; and B. Sauer, Der Knabe von
Subiaco, _Festgabe H. Bluemner ueberreicht_, 1914, pp. 143 f., and note

[1433] _E. g._, by Bulle; Brizio, _Ausonia_, I, 1906, p. 21; _cf._
Winter, _l. c._; etc. If a Niobid, he was probably wounded in the neck
(_cf._ the one in Milan) and formed part of a group.

f; _cf._ _Jh. oest. arch. Inst._, IX, 1906, pp. 273 f.
[1435] Formerly by G. Koerte, _Jb._, XI, 1896, pp. 11 f.; _cf._ the
Pompeian wall-painting, _ibid._, p. 15, fig. 2; he has since given up
this view: see Sauer, _l. c._
[1436] De Ridder, _op. cit._, the hands seem to have been placed wrong
for this interpretation, though Helbig and Amelung find it possible.
[1437] Petersen, _Jb._, XI, 1896, pp. 202 f.; such a motive was unknown
to antiquity and is based on the wrong assumption that a marble hand
holding a rope-like object, which was found in the same excavations,
belongs to the statue: see Helbig, _l. c._
[1438] Sauer, in the publication mentioned, believes the riddle best
solved by assuming that the figure formerly was part of a gable group;
see the reconstruction (by Luebke), p. 145, fig. 4. He dates it in the
second half of the fifth century B. C., contemporary with the _Idolino_.
[1439] The fleetness of Ladas was often extolled, especially by late
Greek and Roman writers: P, III, 21.1; Plut., _Praecip. ger. reip._,
10; Catullus, LV, 25; Juvenal, XIII, 97; Martial, II, LXXXVI, 8, and
XC, 5; Seneca, _Ep._, LXXXV, 4; Solinus, 7; etc.
[1440] _A. Pl._, IV, no. 53; here line 3 was added by Jacobs, and line
4 by Benndorf, from two parodies of the epigram in _A. G._, XI, 86
and 119; in the first parody ἄλλος stands for Λάδας and Περικλῆς for
κάμνων. See Benndorf, _de anthologiae Graecae Epigrammatis quae ad
artes spectant_, Diss. inaug., 1862, pp. 13 f., and Kalkmann, _Jb._,
X, 1895, pp. 76-77 and notes. Studniczka (see next note) reads line 4:
Λάδας, οἱ δ’ ἄλλοι δάκτυλον οὐ προέβαν.
[1441] _A. Pl._, IV, 54. Benndorf corrects the Mss. reading of the
last half of l. 2 as νεῦρα ταθεὶς ὄνυχι; others read the whole line:
θυνὸν [= δρόμον] ἐπ’ ἀκροτάτῳ σκάμματι θεὶς ὄνυχα. On the two epigrams,
see Studniczka, Myron’s Ladas, _Ber. saechs. Gesellsch. d. Wiss.,
Philolog.-histor. Cl._, 52, 1900, pp. 329 f. (especially pp. 333 f.).

[1446] No. 249, 249 a; he fixes his victory in Ol. (?) 85 (= 440 B.
C.), because of the late dating of Myron by Pliny, _H. N._, XXXIV, 49
(_floruit_ Ol. 90 = 420 B. C.: _cf._ Brunn, I, 142 f.); Furtwaengler
dated his activity within the first half of the fifth century B. C.:
_Mp._, p. 182; Robert provisionally dates the victory of Ladas in
Ol. (?) 76 (= 476 B. C.), though he finds that Ols. 80 and 81 (= 460
and 456 B. C.) are possible: see _O. S._, p. 184; here he dates the
sculptor (?) 476-444 B. C.

Helbig (3d ed.); on the other hand, Reisch (p. 46), B. B., and formerly
Helbig (in the first edition of his _Guide_), have regarded them as
wrestlers.
[1452] The statuette and relief are pictured in _Mon. ant._, XI, 1901,
Pl. XXVI, 2, and pp. 402 f. The statuette also in Arndt-Amelung,

[1453] _Mp._, pp. 126 f., and fig. 51; _Mw._, pp. 284 f., fig. 38; here
the restored parts have been removed and his own restoration is given
in an outline drawing. See also B. B., no. 129; Helbig, _Fuehrer_, I,

[1454] Mentioned by P., I, 28.2 and I, 25.1; the inscribed base has
been found (see Lolling, Ἀρχαιολογικὸν Δελτίον, 1889, p. 35, n. 2).
The _Perikles_ is exemplified by two inscribed copies: a terminal bust

Arndt-Bruckmann, _Griech. u. roem. Portraets_, 413, 414: Bernouilli,
_Griech. Ikonogr._, I, Pl. XI, p. 108; etc.
[1455] _H. N._, XXXIV, 74; in this passage Pliny also mentions an
_Olympius Pericles_. The Naples statue has been wrongly restored as a
gladiator; it is pictured, minus the restorations, in _Mp._, p. 125,
fig. 50; _Mw._, p. 282, fig. 37; _cf._ Clarac, 870, 2210 and 872, 2210.
Furtwaengler connects this statue with the bronze one of a certain
Diitrephes pierced with arrows, which Pausanias saw on the Akropolis,
I, 23.3; a basis found there, inscribed with the name Kresilas,
supported a votive offering of Hermolykos, the son of Diitrephes, to
Athena: _I. G. B._, 46; _C. I. A._, I, 402 (Kirchhoff, who opposes the
connection); _cf._ p. 373. The base shows that a figure stood upon it
in the pose of another figure, which appears on a white-faced Attic
lekythos in the Cab. des Médailles in Paris (_Mp._, p. 124, fig. 48),
which Furtwaengler believes a free rendering of the Kresilæan statue.
[1456] In Ols. 83, 84, 85 (= 448-440 B. C.): Afr.; Foerster, 239, 245,

[1469] P., II, 11.8; X, 34.5. In the first passage Pausanias speaks
of a victor who won the _diaulos_ twice—once γυμνός, the second time
σὺν τῇ ἀσπίδι. De Ridder, _B. C. H._, XXI, 1897, pp. 211 f., discusses
Hauser’s futile argument (_Jb._, II, 1887, pp. 95 f.) that the
hoplite-runner covered the stadion four times, the first and fourth
with helmet and shield, the second and third without the shield, and
conclusively shows that the race was a _diaulos_. For Athens, see
Aristoph., _Aves_, 291 f., and scholion. The race was four stades long
at Nemea: _cf._ Ph., 7, and Juethner’s note (p. 196).
[1470] Ph., 8; _cf._ also 24.

[1484] See Gardiner, p. 291 and _J. H. S._, _l. c._, pp. 284 f. Perhaps
this is the explanation of a kylix in Berlin (no. 4039), reproduced by
Furtwaengler in _Samml. Sabouroff_, I, Pl. LIII.
[1485] _E. g._, on a r.-f. kylix in Munich (no. 1240); _J. H. S._,

represents a palæstra scene, as is shown by the sponges on the wall.

[1488] I, 23.9. In 1838 the inscribed base of this statue was found,
the inscription being: Ἐπι[χ]αρῖνος [ἀνέ]θηκεν ὁ ... Κριτίος καὶ
Νησ[ι]ώτης ἐπο[ιησ]άτην: _C. I. A._, I, 376; Loewy, _I. G. B._, 39.
This shows that Pausanias got his information about the pose from the
statue itself and not from the inscription. It also gives us the right
spelling of the artist’s name.

believes that the helmet is not alien to the statue as some think, but
points out that the head, which is much restored and is akin to the
_Perseus_, is wrongly attached to the body. Hauser, _Jb._, II, 1887, p.
101, n. 24, because of the tree-trunk, does not believe that the statue
represents a hoplite-runner; but Furtwaengler shows that the tree-trunk
offers no objection to restoring a shield to the statue.

[1495] Bulle, and also Klein (III, pp. 265 f.), believe that Agasias
was no mere copyist, while Amelung (Becker-Thieme, _Lex. d. bild.

the statue dates it about 100 B. C.

[1497] Bulle dates it loosely after the middle of the sixth century B.
C.
[1498] He shows that a similar type appears on Athenian dekadrachmai,
which were struck soon after the date of the battle of Marathon, in any
case before 480 B. C.; _cf._ Babelon, _Journ. Int. d’arch. Num._, 1905.

[1505] It represents jumping, javelin-throwing, and diskos-throwing; it
is a Panathenaic vase of the sixth century B. C. in the British Museum:
B 134; _J. H. S._, XXVII, 1907, Pl. XVIII; Gardiner, p. 360, fig.
107; _cf._ these three events pictured on another amphora of similar
date in Leyden: _A. Z._, XXXIX, 1881, Pl. IX; Gardiner, p. 361, fig.
108. A gymnasium scene (_i. e._, figures of a jumper, diskobolos, and
apparently an akontistes) appears on a r.-f. vase-painting by Douris:
see Pottier, _Douris et les Peintres de Vases grecs_, 1904 (engl. ed.
1909), fig. 6; Perrot-Chipiez, X, p. 549, fig. 315.

right hand), 504 (diskos in right hand), the first 3.37 inches tall,
the other 4.87 inches; the latter has a fillet in the hair and so
represents a victor.
[1581] _B. M. Bronzes_, no. 559; _J. H. S._, _l. c._, p. 17, fig. 6. As
the whole lebes is only 18.5 inches tall, this lid figure is very small.

meter high.
[1583] Published by H. G. E. White in _J. H. S._, XXXVI, 1916, pp. 16
f., Pls. I, II and 3 figs, in text. Pl. I is the more archaic: Museum
no. 6615; _Arch. Eph._, 1883, p. 86; Staïs, _Marbres et Bronzes_, p.
267; de Ridder, pp. 281-2, no. 757, and fig. 265. Pl. II is the less
archaic: Museum no. 6614; _Arch. Eph._, 1883, p. 46; _J. H. S._, X,
1889, pp. 268-9 (E. A. Gardiner); Staïs, _op. cit._, p. 267; de Ridder,
pp. 275-7, no. 750, and fig. 257.
[1584] Pliny, _H. N._, VII, 201, traces its origin to Aetolus, son of
Mars. Phrastor won a victory in such a contest at Olympia: Pindar,
_Ol._, X, 71. See Krause, pp. 465 f.; Juethner, pp. 36 f.; Gardiner,
Ch. XVI, pp. 338 f.; _id._, _J. H. S._, XXVII, 1907, pp. 258 f.;
Dar-Sagl., I, 1, pp. 226 f.; Pauly-Wissowa, I, pp. 1183 f. (Reisch);
Girard, _L’éduc. athén._, pp. 203 f.; Grasberger, _Erziehung und
Unterricht_, I, pp. 327 f., and III, pp. 168 f.; etc. In the following
account we are chiefly indebted to Juethner and Gardiner.
[1585] See Stassoff _apud_ Stephani, _Comptes rendus de la comm. impér.
archaéol._, St. Petersburg, 1872, p. 302. _Cf._ Juethner, _Ph._, p. 64.
[1586] Iliad, XXIII, 884 f.; _cf._ 637.
[1587] The athletic style appears on many vases, especially on r.-f.
ones; see _infra_, pp. 223-4 and notes.
[1588] The javelin is held horizontally by the warrior on the interior
of a b.-f. kylix in the British Museum: _B. M. Vases_, B 380; _J. H.
S._, XXVII, p. 252, fig. 2; Gardiner, p. 342, fig. 93. It was commonly
held slopingly over the shoulder level with the head in representations
of the athletic style; _e. g._, the second athlete from the left in the
sixth-century B. C. b.-f. Panathenaic amphora in the British Museum
(Fig. 44): _B. M. Vases_, B 134; _cf._ also a similar figure on the
sixth-century B. C. amphora in Leyden: _A. Z._, XXXIX, 1881, Pl. IX;
Gardiner, p. 361, fig. 108.
[1589] At Athens as early as the fifth century B. C. there were
practical javelin contests from horseback with a target, and such
contests kept up in Thessaly to the time of Hadrian: Gardiner, pp.
356-8. Throwing the javelin at a target from horseback is seen on a
Panathenaic amphora in the British Museum: Gardiner, p. 357, fig. 106;
_J. H. S._, XXVII, Pl. XX. Pindar mentions javelin-throwing three
times, and in each case the throw was for distance: _Nem._, VII, 70-1;
_Isthm._, II, 35; _Pyth._, I, 44. Lucian, in a passage referring to
the pentathlon at Olympia, says that athletes competed for distance:
_Anacharsis_, 27. On this question, see Juethner, pp. 54 f.
[1590] Hesychios calls it ἀποτομάς, _s. v._; see also Pollux, X, 64.
