Passage 6.8.3
Εὐβώτας δὲ ὁ Κυρηναῖος, ἅτε τὴν ἐσομένην οἱ δρόμου νίκην ἐν Ὀλυμπίᾳ παρὰ τοῦ μαντείου τοῦ ἐν Λιβύῃ προπεπυσμένος, τήν τε εἰκόνα ἐπεποίητο πρότερον καὶ ἐπὶ ἡμέρας τῆς αὐτῆς ἀνηγορεύθη τε νικήσας καὶ ἀνέθηκε τὴν εἰκόνα. λέγεται δὲ καὶ ὡς κρατήσειε καὶ ἅρματι ἐπὶ Ὀλυμπιάδος ταύτης ἣ λόγῳ τῷ Ἠλείων ἐστὶ κίβδηλος τῶν ἀγωνοθετησάντων Ἀρκάδων ἕνεκα.
Eubotas of Cyrene, having learned beforehand of his impending victory in the Olympic running race from the oracle in Libya, had already commissioned his statue in advance, and was proclaimed the winner and dedicated the statue on the very same day. It is said also that he won a chariot race at that Olympiad, which the Eleans call illegitimate because the games were administered by the Arcadians.
