τῇ δὲ ἀκροπόλει, πλὴν ὅσον Κίμων ᾠκοδόμησεν αὐτῆς ὁ Μιλτιάδου, περιβαλεῖν τὸ λοιπὸν λέγεται τοῦ τείχους Πελασγοὺς οἰκήσαντάς ποτε ὑπὸ τὴν ἀκρόπολιν·
The core is impersonal λέγεται with infinitival subject περιβαλεῖν; Πελασγούς is the accusative subject of the supplementary participle οἰκήσαντας, while the πλὴν ὅσον clause limits the extent attributed to Cimon.
