Passage 8.37.1
ἀπὸ δὲ Ἀκακησίου τέσσαρας σταδίους ἀπέχει τὸ ἱερὸν τῆς Δεσποίνης. πρῶτα μὲν δὴ αὐτόθι Ἡγεμόνης ναός ἐστιν Ἀρτέμιδος καὶ χαλκοῦν ἄγαλμα ἔχον δᾷδας ---ποδῶν ἓξ εἶναι μάλιστα αὐτὸ εἰκάζομεν---, ἐντεῦθεν δὲ ἐς τὸν ἱερὸν περίβολον τῆς Δεσποίνης ἐστὶν ἔσοδος. ἰόντων δὲ ἐπὶ τὸν ναὸν στοά τέ ἐστιν ἐν δεξιᾷ καὶ ἐν τῷ τοίχῳ λίθου λευκοῦ τύποι πεποιημένοι, καὶ τῷ μέν εἰσιν ἐπειργασμέναι Μοῖραι καὶ Ζεὺς ἐπίκλησιν Μοιραγέτης, δευτέρῳ δὲ Ἡρακλῆς τρίποδα Ἀπόλλωνα ἀφαιρούμενος· ὁποῖα δὲ ἐς αὐτοὺς ἐπυνθανόμην γενέσθαι, δηλώσω καὶ τοῦτο, ἢν ἐς τοῦ Φωκικοῦ λόγου τὰ ἔχοντα ἐς Δελφοὺς ἀφικώμεθα.
The sanctuary of Despoina lies four stades from Akakesion. At first there stands the temple of Artemis Hegemone, housing a bronze statue holding torches—we estimate it to stand around six feet tall. From there, one enters the sacred enclosure of Despoina. Approaching the temple, there is a portico on the right side, and on its wall are reliefs carved in white marble. On the first relief are portrayed the Fates and Zeus surnamed Moiragetes; on the second is depicted Herakles taking away Apollo's tripod. As for the tradition associated with these scenes, I will recount that too, when I come to the relevant point in my narrative concerning Delphi in the Phocian account.
