Summary

Description

This golden statue of Athena was the crowning jewel of the Parthenon, located atop the Acropolis in Athens, Greece.

This Athena statue was removed when Greece adopted Christianity and converted the Parthenon into a church; the statue's fate is unknown. Later, the Parthenon served as a munitions storage depot, and a medieval explosion reduced it to the ruins seen today.
