"Grandfather was a true hero. Maybe one day they'll sculpt a statue of me."

Statue at the shrine depicting Leonidas

The Tomb of Leonidas was a shrine in Sparta, Greece, where the King Leonidas' remains and gear were displayed after his death during the Battle of Thermopylae in 480 BCE. In addition, a stele was erected at the shrine, where the names of the soldiers who fought at the battle were inscribed.

During the Peloponnesian War, the shrine was visited by Myrrine, Leonidas' daughter, and Kassandra, his granddaughter.[1]
