Today we’re going to talk about yet another giant statue in the Seven Wonders lexicon—one that was once pictured straddling the harbor at Rhodes, holding aloft a torch. He was supposed to depict the god Helios, although some said it looked more like Alexander the Great.

Rhodes was an island full of pirates, smugglers and ne’er-do-wells. What would have possessed them to build a giant statue of Helios in their harbor? Why that god? Why in that place? What did it all mean? And what did it have to do with Demetrius the Besieger?

Join us as we unravel the mysteries that surround this statue, the cult of Helios, the island of Rhodes and meet a few of Jenny’s favorite historical figures from the War of the Diadochi.
