Eubotas of Cyrene was a two-time Olympic champion from the city of Cyrene.
As predicted by an oracle, Eubotas made history by winning the stadion (running race) at the 93rd Olympic Games in 408 BC. This victory marked the beginning of his legendary career in one of the most prestigious Games events. Forty-four years later, in 364 BC, at the 104th Games, he was awarded a second Olympic crown as owner of a carriage for the four-horse chariot race, the quadriga.
