2. Of Stymphalus, twice won the prize at Olympia in the dolichos, but it is not known in what years. He also gained two prizes at the Pythian, three at the Isthmian, and five at the Nemean games. He is said to have first introduced the custom of feeding the athletes with meat. There was a statue of his at Olympia, which was the work of Pythagoras. (Paus. 6.7.3; Plin. Nat. 34.8, 19.)
