Passage 7.27.6
λέγεται δὲ καὶ ὡς Κορινθίου συνεστῶτος πολέμου Πελληνεῦσιν ἀποκτείνειεν ὁ Πρόμαχος πλείστους τῶν ἀντιτεταγμένων. λέγεται δὲ καὶ ὡς Πουλυδάμαντος τοῦ Σκοτουσσαίου κρατήσειεν ἐν Ὀλυμπίᾳ· τὸν δὲ Πουλυδάμαντα δεύτερα τότε ἐς τὸν ἀγῶνα ἀφῖχθαι τὸν Ὀλυμπικὸν παρὰ βασιλέως τοῦ Περσῶν ἀνασωθέντα οἴκαδε. Θεσσαλοὶ δὲ ἡσσηθῆναι Πουλυδάμαντα οὐχ ὁμολογοῦντες παρέχονται καὶ ἄλλα ἐς πίστιν καὶ ἐλεγεῖον ἐπὶ τῷ Πουλυδάμαντι· ὦ τροφὲ Πουλυδάμαντος ἀνικάτου Σκοτόεσσα. unknown
It is said also that during a war between Corinth and Pellene, Promachus slew a great many of his opponents. It is further said that he defeated even Pulydamas of Scotussa at Olympia. Pulydamas had returned safely home from a journey to the king of the Persians, arriving for a second time at the Olympic games. The Thessalians, however, not admitting that Pulydamas was actually defeated, provide additional proofs, including an elegiac couplet composed about Pulydamas: "O Skotoessa, nurse of unconquered Pulydamas."
