Notes on the current edition

The Dance

1.
Probably the wrestling match between Cronus and Zeus, by which Zeus won possession of Olympia, is meant here rather than the games in which the gods competed under the presidency of Zeus (Paus., V, 7, 10), or the wrestling match between Zeus and Heracles (Lyc., 39-43), or the games held by Heracles, in which the competitors were his contemporaries (Pindar, Ol., X, 60-75).
