Note 237 — Chapter VIII · ATHLETICS UNDER THE ROMANS
Reading edition
Africanus states that the discontinuance of these events lasted from Ol. 178 to Ol. 194, when the chariot-race, after being “long prohibited,” was won by Germanicus. The inaccuracy of this statement is proved by the discovery of an earlier inscription recording the victory of Tiberius Claudius Nero. Ol. Ins. 220-221.
