A famous Olympian victor Euthycles was sent as an ambassador to a neighboring city. However, when he returned with an expensive gift the populace thoughτ he had accepted a bribe to betray them, and dishonored his statue. Apollo punished the Locrians as a result. This story has clear affinities with fr. 64 on the tomb of Simonides. According to the Diegesis, this was the final aition in book 3.
