Sylloge Inscriptionum Graecarum: 393


A STATUE OF OLYMPIAS, DAUGHTER OF PYRRHOS, AT OLYMPIA.

Greek text:   IvO_310
Date:     250-235 B.C.
Format:   see key to translations

Olympias was probably included in a group that Nereis, daughter of Pyrrhos, set up at Delphi ( Syll_453 ). Nereis may have set up a similar group at Olympia; but the first line of this inscription has been restored to suggest that it was a city that made the dedication.


. . . queen Olympias, daughter of king Pyrrhos.
