[2] Near the portico [
stoā] stand [the statues of] Konon, Timotheus his son, and Euagoras,
14
King of Cyprus, who exacted a gift of Phoenician trireme ships to be given to Konon by King Artaxerxes. This he did as an Athenian whose ancestry connected him with Salamis, for he traced-his-lineage [
geneālogeîn] back to Teukros as also to the daughter of Kinyras. Here stand [the statue of] Zeus, called Zeus Eleutherios [‘of Freedom’], and [the statue of] ‘King’ [
basileus] Hadrian, who made-public-displays [
apo-deiknusthai] of his benefactions to all the populations that he ruled [
arkhein]—and especially to the city of the Athenians.
