Μαντινεῦσι δὲ ἐν τῇ ἀγορᾷ γυναικός τε εἰκὼν χαλκῆ--- καὶ Μαντινεῖς καλοῦσι Διομένειαν Ἀρκάδος ---καὶ ἡρῷόν ἐστι Ποδάρου·
The sentence has two coordinated predicates: εἰκών ... [ἐστίν] and ἡρῷόν ἐστι; Μαντινεῦσι is the dative locative-like possessor/topic, while καλοῦσι introduces an explanatory naming clause with Διομένειαν as object and Ἀρκάδος as genitive apposition/description. The three hyphens are retained as punctuation tokens and attached to the surrounding clause.
