4. The race in armour was the last event of the whole programme.[301] It seems possible from the words of Philostratus that it came on the very last day of the festival. 5. The pentathlon followed the horse-races, and in Xenophon’s time took place on the same day, the day preceding the sacrifice. Previous to Ol. 78 these events may have followed the foot-races. 6. When the competitions for heralds and trumpeters were introduced in Ol. 96, they naturally came off on the first day, seeing that the winners had the privilege of officiating at the festival. The horse-races and the men’s foot-races took place in the morning; the pentathlon, and the heavy events, boxing, wrestling, and pankration, after mid-day.[302] The pentathlon and horse-races, as we know, were in Xenophon’s time on the same day, _i.e._ the 13th. The foot-races and heavy events for men also presumably occupied one whole day, the 15th.[303] There was certainly no time on this day for the boys’ events, which were not sufficiently numerous to occupy a whole day. We may conjecture that they took place on the afternoon of the 14th. We arrive therefore at the following probable arrangement for the period beginning 468 B.C.:— Chariot and horse-races 2nd day of festival (the 13th). Pentathlon Boys’ events afternoon of the 3rd day (the 14th). Foot-races for men Wrestling, boxing, pankration 4th day of festival (the 15th). Race in armour
