Ithomaia
The statue of Zeus is the work of Ageladas and was made originally for the Messenian settlers in Naupaktos. The priest is chosen annually and keeps the image in his house. They keep an annual festival, the Ithomaia, and originally a musical contest was held. This can be gathered from the epic lines of Eumelos and other sources. Eumelos, in his processional hymn to Delos, says: 'For dear to Ithomatos was the Mousa, whose lute is pure and free her sandals.' I think that he wrote the lines because he knew that they held a musical contest." - Pausanias 4.33
