Aristeides (sculptor)
Aristeides (Ancient Greek: Ἀριστείδης) was a sculptor of ancient Greece who was celebrated for his statues of four-horsed and two-horsed chariots. Since he was the disciple of Polykleitos the Younger, he must have flourished around 388 BCE.[1] Perhaps he was the same person as the Aristeides who made some improvements in the goals of the Olympic stadium.[2][3]
