Comment: | Moretti (1957) dates the inscription (IvO 176) to the mid-3rd century BC based on epigraphic characteristics and the mention of the Soteria at Delphi (though Delphi is not mentioned in the inscription). The editors of IvO 176 give a date range from 280 to 250 BC. Moretti then suggests the 132nd Olympiad for this victory (=252 BC). SEG 37.358 argues for a dating of the inscription after 246 BC. Later Moretti (1992) postpones the Olympic victory to a a few years later, due to the double victory achieved at the Soteria. |
