προελθόντι δὲ οὐ πολὺ ἔστι μὲν γῆς χῶμα Ἀριστοδήμου τάφος, ὃν οὐδὲ τυραννοῦντα ἀφείλοντο μὴ ἐπονομάσαι Χρηστόν.
The dative participle προελθόντι is an absolute temporal frame (‘when one has gone forward’); ἔστι introduces the nominal predicate χῶμα, with τάφος as a second appositional/predicative description. The relative clause has ὃν as object of ἀφείλοντο, with τυραννοῦντα agreeing with its understood antecedent and μὴ ἐπονομάσαι expressing the prevented naming as Χρηστόν.
