Open translation for this passage
ἐνομίσθη δὲ ἐπὶ τοιῷδε· Θησέα ἀνακομιζόμενον ἐκ Κρήτης φασὶν ἐν Δήλῳ ἀγῶνα ποιήσασθαι τῷ Ἀπόλλωνι, στεφανοῦν δὲ αὐτὸν τοὺς νικῶντας τῷ φοίνικι.
Impersonal ἐνομίσθη governs ἐπὶ τοιῷδε with a following accusative-and-infinitive construction: Θησέα is the accusative subject of ποιήσασθαι and στεφανοῦν, while ἀνακομιζόμενον is a participial modifier of Θησέα. The second infinitive στεφανοῦν coordinates within the reported content and takes αὐτόν as its accusative subject/object ambiguity resolved as subject of the infinitive, with τοὺς νικῶντας as its object.
