Naxos Island Cyclades Greece - Apollonas Kouros 4K

he statue of Kouros in Apollonas is exceeding 10 meters in height. Kouroi are large marble statues depicting young males, which dominated Greek art after the Middle Archaic period. The statue dates back to the 8th century, and archeologists haven't come to a conclusion regarding whether the statue depicts the god Apollo or the god Dionysus. Despite the name given to it, evidence shows that the statue is not a Kouros. Kouroi are statues of young men with their arms attached to the torso and one leg slightly in front of the other. The statue in Apollonas, however, seems to wear a long cloak, and his face displays long hair and a beard. For that reason, most researchers believe that it depicts the god Dionysus.
