ἀρχαιότατον δὲ ἀγώνισμα γενέσθαι μνημονεύουσι καὶ ἐφʼ ᾧ πρῶτον ἆθλα ἔθεσαν, ᾆσαι ὕμνον ἐς τὸν θεόν·

The syntax is somewhat compressed: ἀρχαιότατον ἀγώνισμα γενέσθαι is treated as an accusative-and-infinitive content clause under μνημονεύουσι, and ᾆσαι ὕμνον ἐς τὸν θεόν is taken as an infinitival phrase loosely dependent on the coordinated verb ἔθεσαν.
