The Palm Tree of Eurymedon was a palm tree made of bronze, erected within the Sanctuary of Delphi in Phokis, Greece.

History[edit | edit source]

The monument was given to the Sanctuary by Athens to celebrate their victory over Persians at the Battle of the Eurymedon, which ended the Persian threat for a while.[1]

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

Behind the scenes[edit | edit source]

The 'bronze palm tree' related to the victory of Eurymedon survives only in accounts like those of Pausanias.
