Abstract
The aim of the present essay is to draw some parallelisms between Pindaric Epinikia and a funerary inscription praising a fallen warrior named Theotimos. Through the study of these parallelisms we intend not only to highlight common rhetorical and literary features but also similar socio-cultural dynamics underlying the dedication of funerary epigrams for fallen warriors and the composition of victory odes. In this sense special attention will be paid to the exploration of motifs such as the glory conferred on to the city and the practice of dedicating crowns.
