Olympic Victor Monuments and Greek Athletic Art by Walter Woodburn Hyde

210. Furtwaengler, _Mp._, p. 196, _Mw._, p. 380, believes it impossible

because of chronological difficulties, and assumes a sculptor of an intermediate generation as the teacher of Polykleitos; he, followed by Mahler, _l. c._, and Klein, I, 340, names Argeiadas (mentioned in _I. G. B._, no. 30) as this intermediate artist. However, he admits that the statement is true in a general sense, since Polykleitos developed his canon from that of Hagelaïdas: _cf._ _50stes Berl. Winckelmannsprogr._, p. 149; Pfuhl, however, p. 2192, has shown that the relationship is perfectly possible. [868] To be mentioned _infra_, p. III and note 2. [869] Dio Chrysost., _de Hom. et Socr._, 1; here Mueller amends the MSS. reading ΗΠΟΥ to ΗΓΙΟΥ; E. A. Gardner, _Class. Rev._, 1894, p. 70, wrongly reads Ἡγελάδου. [870] _Mp._, pp. 53 and 196; _Mw._, pp. 80-81, and 380. [871] Wilamowitz has shown that it comes from Apollonios, son of Chairis, who lived _circa_ 100 B. C., and that it goes back probably to the _Chronica_ of Apollodoros of Athens, who lived in the middle of the second century B. C.: _Aus Kydathen_ (Kiessling and Wilamowitz, _Philolog. Untersuchungen_, I, 1880), pp. 154 f. Kalkmann, in his _Quellen der Kunstgesch. d. Plinius_, p. 41, believes that the date which is given by Pliny (XXXIV, 49) for the _floruit_ of Hagelaïdas, Ol. 87 (= 423-429 B. C.), comes from the same Apollodoros. [872] _Op. cit._, pp. 41 and 65 f.; Pfuhl, p. 2194. Brunn, _l. c._, Overbeck, I, p. 140, and Robert, _l. c._, had assumed an earlier plague at the beginning of the fifth century B. C.; but the real occasion for the dedication of the _Herakles_ remains obscure. [873] P., IV, 33.2. [874] P., VI, 8.6; Hyde, 82; Foerster, 142, 148. [875] P., VI, 14.11; Hyde, 132; Foerster, 133, 134. [876] P., VI, 10.6 f.; Hyde, 99; Foerster, 143. There is no reason for following Brunn in his contention that these statues were set up some time after the victories, as these dates fit the chronology of the artist outlined above. [877] A fifth-century type of statue occurs on these coins, representing the god standing with the left foot forward, the knee slightly bent, a thunderbolt held in the extended right hand and an eagle in the extended left: _B. M. Coins_, Pelop., Pl. XXII, nos. 1 and 6; Hitz.-Bluemn., I, 2, Muenztafel, III, 20 and 12; Springer-Michaelis, I, p. 211, fig. 393; Collignon, I, p. 318, figs. 158-159. Frickenhaus, quoted by Pfuhl, p. 2194, believes that the pose is seen also in the small bronze pictured in _B. S. A._, III, 1896-7, Pl. X, 1. [878] P., VII, 24.4. See _B. M. Coins, Pelop._, Pl. IV, nos. 12 and 17, and _cf._ 14; Hitz.-Bluemn., II, 1, Muenztafel, IV, 16-17; Svoronos, _Journ. int. d’arch. num._, II, 1898, 302, Pl. 14, 11. [879] Furtwaengler, _50stes Berl. Winckelmannsprogr._, 1890 (Eine argivische Bronze), pp. 152-153 and Pl. I (3 views); from which plate Gardner, _Hbk._, p. 221, fig. 49; Waldstein, _J. H.

S._, XXIII, 1903, pp. 223 f., and fig. 1, who compares its style and pose with a later bronze statuette found off Cerigotto (_Arch. Eph._, 1902, Pl. 14). Ligourió is on the site of the ancient Lessa: Curtius, _Peloponnesos_, II, 1852, p. 418. The bronze without the base is 135 millimeters high (Furtwaengler). [880] B.
