Abstract
On 25 July A.D. 124 C. Iulius Demosthenes, the prytanis and secretary of the boule of the Oenoandians, made a promise to found a penteteric thymelic festival in Oenoanda to be called the Demostheneia. As part of that formal promise, Demosthenes set out terms about how the festival would be financed, how the prize money was to be divided, and how the agonothete, or president of the festival, was to be elected. At the same time, in the announcement of 25 July, the arrangement and dates of the competitions to take place at the festival over slightly more than a three-week period in July were spelled out in detail
