Extract
Our knowledge of Damophon of Messene is primarily derived from the fragments of the great group made by him for the temple of Despoina at Lycosura, and discovered there by M. Cavvadias during the excavations undertaken in the summer of 1889. The best known fragments are the three heads and the piece of embroidered drapery in the National Museum at Athens, but a great number of smaller pieces exist in the magazines at Athens and in the museum recently erected at Lycosura.
From Pausanias we learn that Damophon erected many statues in Messene and in the sanctuary of the Great Goddesses at Megalopolis; that he worked at Aigion and Lycosura; and that he was entrusted with the repairs of the Zeus of Pheidias at Olympia. There is no mention of Damophon in other classical writers.

page 133 note 2 The existence of two sculptors, Xenophilos and Straton of Argos is attested by several inscriptions of the middle of the second century, but they always sign themselves ᾿Αργεῖοι and so we are unable to conjecture a connexion.

with central dot, the Ε and the Σ with divergent bars show that it is decidedly older than the other two inscriptions, and must fall in the first half of the century.
