Psaumis of Camarina
Psaumis was a citizen of Camarina, a Greek city on the south coast of Sicily, who won an Olympic victory with a chariot, probably in 452 BCE. The poet Pindar celebrated him in his fourth Olympian ode, and a fifth ode in his honour is also preserved under Pindar's name. The poems praise his wealth and his support for the rebuilding of his city.
