  SU(3) Einstein-Yang-Mills-dilaton theory possesses sequences of static
spherically symmetric sphaleron and black hole solutions for the SU(2) and the
SO(3) embedding. The solutions depend on the dilaton coupling constant
$\gamma$, approaching the corresponding Einstein-Yang-Mills solutions for
$\gamma \rightarrow 0$, and Yang-Mills-dilaton solutions in flat space for
$\gamma \rightarrow \infty$. The sequences of solutions tend to
Einstein-Maxwell-dilaton solutions with different magnetic charges. The
solutions satisfy analogous relations between the dilaton field and the metric
for general $\gamma$. Thermodynamic properties of the black hole solutions are
discussed.
