SECONDARY ATTRIBUTES OF VICTOR STATUES. 161 
in the funerary stele from the Dipylon representing a victor, which 
has been mentioned in a preceding section;! here the palm extends 
from the left hand, which is held down close to the side, up to the shoul- 
der. We have already noted that the copyist added a palm-branch 
to the stump placed beside the Vatican girl runner (PI. 2). In the 
Choiseul-Goufiier Apollo (Pl. 7A) the left hand should doubtless be 
restored with the palm-branch, because of the projecting notch of 
marble on the side of the left leg near the knee.2 A similar notch 
appears also on the 4 pollo-on-the-Omphalos in Athens (Pl. 7B), which 
shows that the left hand held a long attribute, which was doubtless a 
palm-branch. ‘This attribute occurs frequently on vases.2 We see 
it on a marble statue found at Formiae and now in the Glyptothek 
Ny-Carlsberg in Copenhagen, which shows the same motive as that 
of the statue by Stephanos (PI. 9), though in a freer style of execution. 
Here the lowered right hand holds a palm-branch, which is shown in 
low relief against the right arm.‘ 
SECONDARY ATTRIBUTES OF VICTOR STATUES. 
In course of time the sculptor was not content to represent victor 
statues merely as victors, but differentiated the various kinds of 
victors by special attributes.

Thus a hoplite victor would be represented with his usual weapons. 
Pausanias, in mentioning the statue at Olympia of the hoplite runner 
Damaretos of Heraia by the Argive sculptors Eutelidas and Chryso- 
themis, says that it “has not only a shield, as the armed runners still 
have, but also a helmet on his head and greaves on his legs.”® He adds 
that the helmet and greaves were gradually abolished at Olympia and 
elsewhere. We have seen that the statue of Damaretos was set up at 
the beginning of the fifth century B. C., when his son Theopompos, the 
pentathlete, won his second victory, the monuments of the two being 
incommon.® Toward the middle of the fifth century the hoplite victor 
Mnaseas of Kyrene had a statue at Olympia, the work of Pythagoras 
of Rhegion, which represented him as an armed man.’ A Pythian vic-

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).
