Note 122 — Chapter V · THE AGE OF THE ATHLETIC IDEAL, 500-440 B.C.
Reading edition
Greek Sculpture, Fig. 138. The identification of this statue is uncertain. It has been suggested that the word “Polyzalos” on the basis is an adjective, and that the victory recorded is that of Arcesilas of Cyrene. This view has been assailed in Ath. Mitth. xxxiv. by A. D. Keramopoullos, who believes that the statue was vowed by Gelon and actually set up by Polyzalos.
