There are many offerings of Croesus' in Greece [22,39] (nation), Europe Hellas , and not only those of which I have spoken. There is a golden tripod at Thebes [23.3333,38.325] (Perseus) Thebes in Boeotia (department), Central Greece and Euboea, Greece, Europe Boeotia , which he dedicated to Apollo of Ismenus; at Ephesus [27.316,37.916] (deserted settlement), Izmir Ili, Ege kiyilari, Turkey, Asia Ephesus 1 there are the oxen of gold and the greater part of the pillars; and in the temple of Proneia at Delphi [22.5167,38.4917] (Perseus) Delphi , a golden shield. 2 All these survived to my lifetime; but other of the offerings were destroyed.
