“…On peut aussi supposer sans grand risque d'erreur que la plupart des cités étrusques célébraient -annuellement ? -des jeux, en l'honneur au moins de leur divinité poliade, sur le modèle des Ludi Magni romains célébrés en septembre en l'honneur du Jupiter Capitolin 30. Par ailleurs, nous savons avec certitude qu'il existait en Etrurie des jeux organisés dans le cadre de la confédération étrusque des douze cités, de même que la Grèce classique connaissait des jeux panhelléniques à Olympie, Delphes, Némée, ainsi qu'à l'Isthme de Corinthe.…”

This article discusses the evolution and main characteristics of Delphi’s statuary landscape, focussing on the process of prestige spatialisation via erection of honorific portraits within the Delphic territory. My goal is to present trends and tendencies in placing honorific portraits at Delphi from the mid-fifth centuryb.c.to the late fourth centurya.d.The article focusses on issues surrounding the locations for honorific statues and how these featured in attempts to monopolise the sanctuary’s overall lay-out throughout by vying for the most conspicuous places at Delphi. I argue that the placement of honorific statues within the Delphictemenoswas not random but was in fact a precisely planned process which was influenced by several (variable) factors. These factors included the availability of space, the visibility of the monuments, and the number of visitors that could be expected. The relationship between Delphi and the League of the Aetolians is particularly stressed in association with the question regarding the nature of the Aetolian self-representation at Delphi. I contrast Delphi with Thermos to assess the degree to which the Aetolians dominated the sanctuary and how they presented themselves to both internal and external audiences.
