The Sphinx
The Sphinx of Naxos is a colossal marble statue offered to the Temple of Delphi by Naxiots in 560 BCE. It is a mythical creature with the head of a woman, the thorax and backswept wings of a bird, and the body of a lioness. The Greek sphinx was considered to be an untamed power and pairs were often placed as guardians, flanking the entrance of a temple.
