Kouros of Apollonas, Naxos
Apollonas, Greece
An unfinished archaic marble statue about 10.7 m tall, left lying in an ancient quarry above Apollonas, probably because it was too heavy to move. The quarry lies up an unpaved road above the village; park carefully, as the roadside edge is deep, and walk the short rise.
