CATALOGUE I: ATHLETES AND VICTORS (A)

Al. 'AyAa6c, ... OivEic, (cp) ca. 450 stadion, hippios dromos ( ?) Isth., Nern., several lesser festivals Bacchyl. Ode 9 (10) Jebb, Bacchylides, 313-21, 476-80 In line 9 Blass supplies and Jebb accepts the dative for the Athenian of the tribe Oineis (lines 17-18) who ran two races in sequence (lines 19-26). The first was probably the stadion, and the second, being four stades long, perhaps was the hippios dromos. The name of the father may have been lost, or not included for metrical reasons. Commissioned by the brother-in-law (lines 9-10) for an unknown reason, the ode cannot be dated with certainty. A2. 'AKapvciv ...

A3. 'Aht~tci8ytc, I ... (lKaµ~tcovi8ytc,) ca. 525-500 chariot (?) Pyth. JG 112 472; G. Daux, "Inscription de Delphes," BCH 46 (1922): 439-51, no. I; Jeffery, Scripts, 75, no. 39. APF 597, see 600 Ill, V, stemma Table I. Jeffery dates this dedication from Delphi to ca. 525-500. Daux's restoration of [TTu]0ta 1tp[G:n:oc,] presumably refers to a chariot victory. Thus with its first known member, this family was already hippotrophic. A's son, Kleinias I, was trierarch at his own expense at Artemisium (Hdt. 8.17; Plut. Ale. 1.1 ). His grandson (Alkibiades II Kleinoiu I) was a candidate for ostracism in the 480s (E. Vanderpool, 'The Ostracism of the Elder ," Hesp. 21 (1951): 1-8).

entered seven chariots at Olympia in 416 and came in first, second and fourth (Thuc. 6.16.2; Ath. 1.3e; Plut. Ale 11 ; Dem. 1.1 ). That he came in third rather than fourth is asserted by Euripides (Plut. Ale. 11) and accepted by Isocrates (16.34). Paintings by Aristophon and Aglaophon, commissioned by A. after his Olympic wins and displayed on the Acropolis, depicted him as a Pythian and Nemean victor (Plut. Ale. 16.7; Ath. 12.534d), leading Pausanias (1.22.7) to credit A. with a horserace win at Nemea. D. A. Amyx, "The Attic Stelai, Part III," Hesp. 27 (I 958) : 178-86, notes the listing of over 82 Panathenaic amphorae among what is likely to be A. 's property (see W. K. Pritchett, "The Attic Stelai, Part I," Hesp. 22 (I 953): 249, Stele II 21, 41-60), and suggests that A. won the Panathenaic chariot race in 418. A.'s father married into the Alkmeonidai and died early, leaving A. to become the ward of Pericles (Ps. Pl. Ale. 1.104b; Pl. Prt. 320a). A. himself married Hipparete I daughter of Hipponikos II in the later 420s (lsoc. 16.31; Ps. Andoc. 4.13; Plut. Ale. 8.1-3) linking himself to the wealthy, hippotrophic family ofKallias II. His reputation for extravagance and his career as a general are well known. Anecdotes in 's Alcibiades suggest A. may have had athletic training as a youth: 2.2 a wrestling bout; 3.1-2 A. in a palaestra; 4.4 A. exercises with Socrates (cf. Pl. Symp. 217c); 16.4 Athenians note the fitness and strength of A.'s body (cf. Isoc. 16.32). Ps. Ale. I 106e also says that A.'s schooling included wrestling.

A5. 'Ahµwv I Mi:yatlfou~ I 'AM07tEKfj0i:v 592 chariot 01. Hdt. 6.125.5; Isoc. 16.25; Schol. Pind. Pyth. 7, p. 201 Dr. Moretti, Olym. no. 81; APF 651, see 9688 II, stemma Table I. This win, after Croesus' gift of gold, was the first of many chariot victories for this family and Athens. A. himself commanded Athenian forces in the First Sacred War from ca. 595 on (Plut. Sol. 11.2). A6. 'AAKµi:covi&ri~ I 'A).Kµtrovo~ I 'AAro1ti:Kfj0i:v ca. 546 chariot Panath.? JG 12 472; Moretti, JAG 10-12, no. 5; Ebert, Epigramme, 38-42, no. 3; Jeffery, Scripts, 73, no. 30. APF653, see 9688 II, stemma Table I; Bicknell, Politics and Genealogy, .68-69, stemma p. 75. A dedication from the sanctuary of Apollo Ptoios in North Boeotia records this victory from the mid-sixth century. From the find spot and orthography, Jeffery suggests A. won at the Great Panathenaea of 546 and then had to leave before he could make a dedication on the Acropolis. Davies feels the primary historical value of the dedication is as a witness of the Alkmeonid response to the The ban support for the return of Pisistratus in 547 /6. A second dedication was made on the Acropolis by A. jointly with [Kpfrn]o~ (DAA no. 317; JAG no. 4, pp. 8-10; Ducat, Les kouroi du Ptoion, 242 ff., no. 14, pl. 72; see A38). This dedication may be slightly earlier (Jeffery, Scripts, 73), and Moretti suggests the Panathenaea of 550/49 or 546/5. The event is uncertain but may have been the hippios dromos (DAA p. 339).
