Close to Dicon is a statue of Xenophon, the son of Menephylus, a pancratiast of Aegium in Achaia , and likewise one of Pyrilampes of Ephesus after winning the long foot-race. Olympus made the statue of Xenophon; that of Pyrilampes was made by a sculptor of the same name, a native, not of Sicyon , but of Messene beneath Ithome .
