"ekivolos ( &epsilonκήβολος) distance throw and stohastikos (στοχαστικός) thwrowing to a target"
There is a reference to target throwing but is there anything else? I do know of the Vase Paintings but most (if any) don't have the details that I seek. It is a shame that this is apparently the humdrum sport of the Ancient Olympics. I always liked watching it.
P.S.- added "pictorial" to title
