Passage 5.21.9
τὰ δὲ ἐπίλοιπα ἐς τοὺς ἀθλητὰς τούτους οἱ ἐξηγηταὶ λέγουσιν οἱ Ἠλείων, ὀγδόην μὲν ἐπὶ ταῖς ἑβδομήκοντα καὶ ἑκατὸν Ὀλυμπιάδα εἶναι, λαβεῖν δὲ Εὔδηλον παρὰ Φιλοστράτου χρήματα, τοῦτον δὲ εἶναι τὸν Φιλόστρατον Ῥόδιον. τούτῳ τῷ λόγῳ διάφορα ὄντα εὕρισκον τὰ Ἠλείων ἐς τοὺς Ὀλυμπιονίκας γράμματα· ἔστι γὰρ δὴ ἐν τοῖς γράμμασι τούτοις Στράτωνα Ἀλεξανδρέα Ὀλυμπιάδι ὀγδόῃ μετὰ τὰς ἑβδομήκοντα καὶ ἑκατὸν ἐπὶ ἡμέρας ἀνελέσθαι τῆς αὐτῆς παγκρατίου καὶ πάλης νίκην. Ἀλεξανδρείας δὲ τῆς ἐπὶ τῷ Κανωβικῷ τοῦ Νείλου στόματι Ἀλέξανδρος μὲν οἰκιστὴς ἐγένετο ὁ Φιλίππου, λέγεται δὲ καὶ πρότερον ἔτι πόλισμα Αἰγυπτίων ἐνταῦθα οὐ μέγα εἶναι Ῥακῶτιν·
Regarding these athletes, the Elean interpreters say that it was the eighth Olympiad after the hundred and seventieth, and that Eudelus received money from Philostratus, who was a Rhodian. Concerning this account, I have found discrepancies in the list of Olympic victors kept by the Eleans; for in these records, it is stated that Strato of Alexandria, in the eighth Olympiad after the hundred and seventieth, won on the same day the victories both in the pancratium and in wrestling. Alexandria, near the Canobic mouth of the Nile, was founded by Alexander, the son of Philip. Yet it is also said that before then a small Egyptian settlement called Rakotis was situated there.
