[4] Near the likeness [
eikōn] of Olympiodoros stands a bronze statue [
agalma] of Artemis with the surname [
epiklēsis] Leukophryne, dedicated by the sons of Themistocles. I say-this-because [
gar] the Magnesians whom he ruled [
arkhein]—and this rule was granted to him by the King [
Basileus] [of the Persian Empire]—hold Artemis Leukophryne in honor [
tīmē]. But my narrative [
logos] must move ahead, with its goal kept in mind, which is, to go through all subjects relating to things Greek [
Hellēnika] while-keeping-in-mind-the-similarities [
homoiōs]. Endoios was an Athenian by birth and a student of Daidalos, who also, when Daidalos was in exile because of the death of Kálōs, went with him to Crete. His [= of Endoios] is a statue [
agalma] of Athena seated, with an inscription [
epigramma] saying that Kallias dedicated the image, but Endoios made [
poieîn] it.

τῆς δὲ εἰκόνος πλησίον τῆς Ὀλυμπιοδώρου χαλκοῦν Ἀρτέμιδος ἄγαλμα ἔστηκεν ἐπίκλησιν Λευκοφρύνης, ἀνέθεσαν δὲ οἱ παῖδες οἱ Θεμιστοκλέους· Μάγνητες γάρ, ὧν ἦρχε Θεμιστοκλῆς λαβὼν παρὰ βασιλέως, Λευκοφρύνην Ἄρτεμιν ἄγουσιν ἐν τιμῇ.

Near the statue of Olympiodorus stands a bronze image of Artemis surnamed Leucophryne, dedicated by the sons of Themistocles; for the Magnesians, whose city the King had given him to rule, hold Artemis Leucophryne in honor.
But my narrative must not loiter, as my task is a general description of all Greece . Endoeus 1 was an Athenian by birth and a pupil of Daedalus, who also, when Daedalus was in exile because of the death of Calos, followed him to Crete . Made by him is a statue of Athena seated, with an inscription that Callias dedicated the image, but Endoeus made it.
