STATUES KNOWN ONLY FROM RECOVERED BASES. 355 
the South Altis wall, and the statue must originally have stood east of 
the temple of Zeus, near the chariot of Gelo (90), for these two were the 
only victors from Gela, and-won in the same kind of contest and at nearly 
the same date.1_ ‘The statues of Phrikias of Pelinna and Phanas of Pel- 
lene, both representing victors in the heavy-armed race, to which I have 
ascribed the two archaic marble heads (Fig. 30), the former found west of 
the temple of Zeus and the latter to the south of it, must originally have 
stood in the area of the later temple and then have been removed.? 
That of an unknown victor, whose name ended in... . adas,® the 
two fragments of whose base were found, one near the Heraion and the 
other to the east of the temple of Zeus, should have stood near the 
statues of the only other pancratiasts of a similar age, either near those of 
Dorieus (61), who won in Ols. 87 to 89 (=432 to 424B.C.), and Damagetos 
(62), who won in Ols. 82 and 83 (=452 and 448 B. C.), in the zone of the 
Bull, or near that of Vimasitheos (82), who won some time between Ols. 
(?) 65 and 67 inclusive (=520 and 512 B. C.), in the zone of the Victory. 
Lastly, the second inscribed base of Xenombrotos (133), found near the 
Council-house outside the South Altis wall, doubtless once stood near 
the first (the epigram from which ts preserved by Pausanias, VI, 14.12), 
along this wall to the east of the base of Telemachos.* 
No inscribed fragments of bases dating from the fourth century B. C. 
have been found. 
Beginning with the third century B. C., we shall see that most of the 
recovered bases were found either in the western part of the Altis, in the 
neighborhood of the Philippeion, Theekoleon, and Leonidaion, on both 
sides of the West Altis wall, or still farther west and northwest, espe- 
cially in or near the Palaistra and Prytaneion. We have already seen 
that most of the statues named by Pausanias dating from Alexander’s 
time stood to the west (and north) of the temple of Zeus. As Pausanias 
enumerates only statues é def@ of his route around the temple to the 
Great Altar, these statues farther west and northwest are omitted 
from his account. Of the four bases of statues referred to the third 
century, all belong to Elean victors; three were found west and north- 
west of the Prytaneion and beyond, showing that these statues once

3Inschr. v. Ol., 150. Roehl (J. G. 4.,355 and Add., p. 182) wrongly ascribed it to Agiadas (103), 
boy boxer of Elis, whose statue was by the Aeginetan Serambos (P., VI, 10.9). His victory should 
fall between Ols. 72 and 74 inclusive (=492 and 484 B. C.): Hyde, p. 44. Foerster, 519, following 
Roehl and Gurlitt (0p. cit., pp. 369 and 419), who placed Serambos in the second century B. C., 
referred the victory of Agiadas to Ol. (?) 161 (=136 B.C.). Robert, O. S., p. 181, identifies the 
inscription with Epitimiadas mentioned in the Oxy. Pap. as victor in rayxparvov in Ol. 78 (=468 
B. C.). Dittenberger and Loewy (latter in J. G. B., 416) refer the inscription to the first half or 
middle of the fifth century B. C. 4Inschr. v. Ol., 170; cf. Hyde,:p. 53.
