Ἴσθμιον· ἡ ἱστορία εὔγνωστός ἐστι πᾶσι τοῦ ἀγῶνος τοῦ Μελικέρτου. Σισυφίδαι δ’ οἱ Κορίνθιοι· ἄγεται δὲ τῷ Μελικέρτῃ ὁ Ἰσθμιακὸς ἀγὼν, ἐν ᾧ ὁ στέφανος ἦν πρότερον τοῖς νικῶσιν ἀπὸ σελίνου, ὕστερον δ’ ἀπὸ πίτυος, γίνεσθαι δέ φασιν ἐπὶ Σίνιδι, τὸν Θησέα διαθεῖναι, οἱ δὲ Ποσειδῶνι τῷ πατρῴῳ θεῷ τελεῖσθαι, οἱ πλεῖστοι δέ φασι τελεῖσθαι τῷ Μελικέρτῃ.
