“With respect to this king’s name, some call him Ninus, too; others, Ninyas by patronymic derivation. Anyway, his contemporary in Sicyon was Telxion (sic), under whose sway times were so pleasant and prosperous that, when he died, his people worshiped him with sacrifices as a god. They also instituted games in his honor — the first instance, history says, of this kind of thing.”
