21. Euryleonis, a victress of Sparta.[2497] Pausanias says that she
had a statue in her native city near the so-called Σκήνωμα, “Tent”
(III, 17.6). Curtius has suggested that this may be the small building
mentioned by Thukydides as the place where King Pausanias took refuge
when pursued by the ephors.[2498]
