<head>Attalus at Sicyon</head>King Attalus had received exceptional honours on a former occasion also from the Sicyonians after he had ransomed for them at considerable expense the land consecrated to Apollo,
in return for which they set up a colossal statue of him ten cubits high, next that of Apollo in their market-place.
And now again, upon his giving them ten talents and ten thousand medimni of wheat, his popularity increased fourfold, and they voted his portrait in gold and passed a law enjoining the performance of an annual sacrifice to him.
Attalus, then, having received these honours left for Cenchreae.
