Comment: | Date: Pausanias tells us that the statue of Lysippos was made by a certain Andreas of Argos. This man, together with Andromachos of Argos, also made the statue of proconsul Q. Marcius Philippus, probably after his consulship in 169 BC and the end of the Third Macedonian War (171-168 BC) (IvO 318). Moretti suggests the 154th Olympiad (=164 BC) for Lysippos' victory. [DvdL] |
