Καὶ Πόλεμων δὲ ἐν τῷ Περὶ τοῦ Μορύχου ἐν Συρακούσαις φησὶν ἐπ ̓ ἄκρᾳ τῇ Νήσῳ τρὸς τῷ τῆς Ὀλυμπίας ἱερῷ, ἐκτὸς τοῦ τείχους, ἐσχάραν τινὰ εἶναι, «ἀφ ̓ ἦς, φησὶ, τὴν κύλικα ναυστολοῦσιν ἀναπλέοντες μέχρι τοῦ γενέσθαι τὴν ἐπὶ τοῦ νεὼ τῆς Ἀθηνᾶς ἀόρατον ἀσπίδα· καὶ οὕτως ἀφιᾶσιν εἰς τὴν θάλασσαν κεραμέαν κύλικα, καθέντες εἰς αὐτὴν ἄνθεα καὶ κηρία καὶι λιβανωτὸν ἄτμητον, καὶ ἄλλ ̓ ἄττα μετὰ τούτων ἀρώματα.»
