It is said Demokrates won the periodos, which allows us to know which Aktia were meant.
Dating based upon Farrington (2012), 138 note 420, based upon the source I.Magnesia 149.b mentioning the quinquennial 'koinon Kappadokias' - Cappadocia became a province in 17 A.D., and the athlete won there thrice. The inscription does not mention the Capitolia at all, which gives a terminum ante quem of 90 A.D. There are some other reasons that can be adduced, for which I refer to Farrington. The source gives many victories apart from the Isthmian (dis). - PK
