Comment: According to Farrington (2012), this athlete was probably active somewhere between c. 161 and c. 250. He won the periodos in the period of one periodos according to I.Tralleis 108 - YP/CT Hierokles won the periodos in the shortest time possible (3 years) in c. 201 AD, but was unable to claim that he was the first to do so (Gouw).
