Picture of the day for January 23, 2016



Votive bronze drum from the late 8th century BC, found in the Cave of Zeus of mount Idi in Crete. The central figure has been identified as Zeus, who is breaking the backbone of a lion, while controlling a bull with his left foot. The two winged figures are Kouretes, that beat the drums to prevent Kronos, the infant eating father of Zeus, from hearing his baby cries during infancy. The decoration of the drum has many influences from Assyrian art. Exhibited at the Archaeological Museum of Heraklion, Greece.. Learn more.
