The Monument of Epigones was a monument featuring seven statues located within the Sanctuary of Delphi in Phokis, Greece.
History
Dedicated by the Argives to the Sanctuary following their victory over Spartans, the statues represent the seven leaders of the legendary expedition against Thebes, Boeotia.[1]
During the Peloponnesian War, the misthios Kassandra visited the monument.[2]
Behind the scenes
Historically, the Epigoni were the sons of the Seven Against Thebes who avenged their fathers, not the seven leaders themselves. The in-game monument seems to be a combination of the Exedra of the Epigones and an ex-voto dedicated to the seven leaders themselves.[3]
