Abstract

This war was fought in the 360s, when the Arcadian league repeatedly invaded the territory of Elis, taking possession of Olympia. Although the Eleians failed to regain the sanctuary when they were defeated in a battle near the temple of Zeus, the Arcadians agreed to return it to them under the terms of peace.
