Ἀγήσαρχον δὲ τὸν Αἱμοστράτου Τριταιέα κρατῆσαι μὲν πύκτας ἄνδρας ἐν Ὀλυμπίᾳ καὶ Νεμέᾳ τε καὶ Πυθοῖ καὶ ἐν Ἰσθμῷ μαρτυρεῖ τὸ ἐλεγεῖον, Ἀρκάδας δὲ τοὺς Τριταιεῖς εἶναι τοῦ ἐλεγείου λέγοντος οὐκ ἀληθεύοντα εὕρισκον.

The sentence contains two accusative-infinitive constructions: κρατῆσαι is content reported by μαρτυρεῖ, while εἶναι is governed by the genitive absolute τοῦ ἐλεγείου λέγοντος; ἀληθεύοντα is an accusative predicative participle with compressed attachment to the main clause.

πόλεων γὰρ τῶν ἐν Ἀρκαδίᾳ ταῖς μὲν ἐπειλημμέναις δόξης οὐδὲ τὰ ἐς τοὺς οἰκιστάς ἐστιν ἄγνωστα, τὰς δὲ ἐξ ἀρχῆς τε ὑπὸ ἀσθενείας ἀφανεστέρας καὶ διʼ αὐτὸ ἀνοικισθείσας ἐς Μεγάλην πόλιν, οὐ περιέχει σφᾶς γενόμενον τότε ὑπὸ τε τοῦ Ἀρκάδων κοινοῦ δόγμα;

The sentence is textually difficult: ἐστιν ἄγνωστα governs the first coordinated accusative subject phrase, while the second accusative city-group is coordinated after δέ; περιέχει is likely an elliptical/discordant continuation, and the final phrase depends on a supplied or corrupt construction. Heads reflect the most plausible analysis, with uncertainty marked.
