Passage 6.13.3
ἐοικότα δὲ Χιόνιδι τὰ ἐς δόξαν καὶ ἀνὴρ Λύκιος παρέσχετο Ἑρμογένης Ξάνθιος, ὃς τὸν κότινον ἐν τρισὶν Ὀλυμπιάσιν ἀνείλετο ὀκτάκις ἐπίκλησίν τε ἔσχεν Ἵππος ὑπὸ Ἑλλήνων· ποιήσαιο δʼ ἂν καὶ Πολίτην ἐν μεγάλῳ θαύματι. ὁ Πολίτης δʼ ἦν οὗτος ἐκ Κεράμου τῆς ἐν τῇ Θρακίᾳ Καρίᾳ, ἀνέφηνε δὲ ἀρετὴν ποδῶν ἐν Ὀλυμπίᾳ πᾶσαν· ἀπὸ γὰρ τοῦ μηκίστου καὶ διαρκεστάτου διʼ ὀλιγίστου δὴ καιροῦ μεθηρμόσατο ἐπὶ τὸ βραχύτατον ὁμοῦ καὶ ὤκιστον, καὶ δολίχου τε ἐν ἡμέρᾳ τῇ αὐτῇ καὶ παραυτίκα σταδίου λαβὼν νίκην προσέθηκε δὲ διαύλου σφίσι τὴν τρίτην.
Similar to Chionis, a Lycian man named Hermogenes, son of Xanthias, achieved a comparable reputation. Hermogenes won the olive wreath at three Olympiads, eight times in total, and among the Greeks he was given the nickname "Horse." One may also justly regard Polites with great admiration. This Polites was from Keramos in Karia near Thrace, and at Olympia he exhibited excellence in every type of running contest. For he transitioned from the longest and most enduring race within a very brief time interval to succeed also in the shortest and swiftest; indeed, on the same day he won the dolichos, and immediately afterward the stadion as well, then added a third victory in the diaulos.
