Colossus of the Naxians

The Colossus of the Naxians was a giant statue of the god Apollo located outside the Grand Temple of Apollo within the Sanctuary of Apollo in Delos, Greece.

History[edit | edit source]

As its name implies, the statue was made and erected by Naxians.[1].

During the Peloponnesian War, the monument was visited by the Spartan misthios Kassandra.[2]

Behind the scenes[edit | edit source]

On Delos' 'sister island', Mykonos, was located the counterpart to this monument: Statue of Artemis Agrotera.

This statue is simply labeled as Statue of Apollo in-game, with 'Colossus of the Naxians' provided by the Historical Locations-tidbit.

Unlike the real statue that was made of Naxian marble, the statue in Assassin's Creed: Odyssey appears to be made of bronze.
