Passage 7.5.9
ἔστι δὲ ἐν Ἐρυθραῖς καὶ Ἀθηνᾶς Πολιάδος ναὸς καὶ ἄγαλμα ξύλου μεγέθει μέγα καθήμενόν τε ἐπὶ θρόνου καὶ ἠλακάτην ἐν ἑκατέρᾳ τῶν χειρῶν ἔχει καὶ ἐπὶ τῆς κεφαλῆς πόλον· τοῦτο Ἐνδοίου τέχνην καὶ ἄλλοις ἐτεκμαιρόμεθα εἶναι καὶ ἐς τὴν ἐργασίαν ὁρῶντες ἔνδον τοῦ ἀγάλματος καὶ οὐχ ἥκιστα ἐπὶ ταῖς Χάρισί τε καὶ Ὥραις, αἳ πρὶν ἐσελθεῖν ἑστήκασιν ἐν ὑπαίθρῳ λίθου λευκοῦ. ἐποιήθη δὲ καὶ κατʼ ἐμὲ Σμυρναίοις ἱερὸν Ἀσκληπιοῦ μεταξὺ Κορυφῆς τε ὄρους καὶ θαλάσσης ἀμιγοῦς ὕδατι ἀλλοίῳ.
In Erythrae there is also a temple of Athena Polias and a large wooden statue seated upon a throne. In each hand she holds a distaff, and upon her head is a polos. We inferred this to be a work of Endoeus, partly from seeing his artistic techniques present elsewhere, but especially from the manner of workmanship observed within the statue, and from the Graces and the Hours standing in the open air, sculpted from white marble, before one enters the temple. In my time, also, a temple of Asclepius was built by the Smyrnaeans, located between the peak of the mountain and the sea, on a site free of other water.
