THE FIRST EPHODOS OF PAUSANIAS. 343 
one of them, that of Eukles (52), seems to have been moved from its 
original position later, as we learn from a scholiast on Pindar’s seventh 
Olympian ode,! who, on the authority of the lost works of Aristotle 
and Apollas on the Olympic victors,? enumerates these statues in an 
order different from that adopted by Pausanias, showing that a change 
in their positions must have taken place some time between the date of 
Aristotle and that of the Periegete.2 The statues of Alkainetos and his 
son Hellanikos (64-65) must also have stood together. Inasmuch as 
the victors from Euthymos to Lykinos (56-68) are, with one exception, 
all pugilists or pancratiasts and of the fifth century B.C., they must 
have been grouped together, with the family groups of Diagoras and 
Alkainetos in the centre.4| We may also add the statues of Dromeus 
and Pythokles® (69-70) of nearly the same date, and we can also ex- 
tend the group in the other direction; for the same scholiast says that 
the statue of Diagoras stood near that of the Spartan Lysandros (35 a).® 
Pausanias (VI, 3.14 and 4.1) says that the statue of Lysandros stood 
between those of Pyrilampes and Athenaios (35-36). Thus we can 
conclude that the 36 statues (35-70, VI, 3.13—7.10) stood in the zone 
of the Eretrian Bull, extending perhaps across the Altis to the vicinity 
of the Echo Colonnade along its eastern boundary. 
It would follow, then, that the intervening statues from Oibotas to 
Xenophon (29-34, P., VI, 3.8-3.13) stood somewhere between the 
Heraion and the Eretrian Bull. It is idle to discuss the route between 
these two monuments more definitely.” 
Our next fixed point is the Victory of Paionios, whose foundation is 
still standing in its original position, 37 meters due east of the southeast 
1Argum., Boeckh, pp. 157-8. Pausanias names them in the order: Diagoras, Akousilaos, 
Dorieus, Damagetos, Peisirhodos. The scholiast names them in the order: Diagoras, Damagetos, 
Dorieus, Akousilaos, Eukles, Peisirhodos. 
See for Aristotle, F. H.G., II, p. 183, fragm. 264. Apollas Ponticus is little known: cf. F. H. G., 
IV, p. 307, fragm. 7; he probably copied from Aristotle’s work. 
8This is Dittenberger’s explanation, Inschr. v. Ol., nos. 151 and 159; and also that of Robert, 
O. S., p. 195, Scherer, p. 49, and Gurlitt, op. cit., p. 411; Purgold, however, Jnschr. v. Ol., p. 262, 
has tried to reconcile the two accounts on the theory of no change. 
4However, Kalkmann, Pausanias der Perieget, p. 90, thinks that the two groups of Diagoras 
and Alkainetos stood apart. 
5The base of the statue of Pythokles was found between the Heraion and the Pelopion: see 
Inschr. v. Ol., 162-163. 
6Gurlitt, Ueber Pausanias, p. 412, assumed the possibility of the existence of two different 
statues of Lysandros, one 35 a, and the other somewhere after Charmides (58) in the family group 
of Diagoras; Kalkmann, op. cit., p. 105 and note 4, explains the discrepancy between the scholiast 
and Pausanias on the theory:that the latter borrowed from older lists; Purgold, Aufsaetze E. 
Curtius gewidmet, pp 238 f., assumed but one statue of Lysandros. 
Scherer, p. 51(cf.Plan opposite p. 56), and Flasch,/.c., p. 1095, note 1, proposed a route south from 
the Heraion to the west of the so-called Great Altar site, while Hirschfeld, /. c., p. 119, made 
it run to the east of it. Doerpfeld, op. cit., p. 88, starting east of the Heraion, made the route run 
first to the west along the south side of the temple, and thence around the western side of the 
Pelopion, and so across to the Eretrian Bull; Michaelis, /. c., p. 164, with the same starting-point, 
had it bear first to the east parallel with the Treasury Terrace, and thence south. See Plans A 
and B.
