Statue of Zeus 8/26 - 9/9
Quickly build and expand your city during the Statue of Zeus event!
The ancient Olympic Games were a sacred rite as well as an athletic spectacle. Among the religious buildings at Olympia was the temple that held the Statue of Zeus, masterpiece of the great Athenian sculptor Phidias. The 40-foot god sat on an exquisitely decorated throne. On his right hand stood a small Nike, whose favor as goddess of victory was much in demand among athletes, while his left grasped a scepter with an eagle perched on top.
Like the Athena that Phidias had sculpted earlier for the Parthenon, the Zeus was made of gold and ivory over a wooden frame. A reflecting pool of olive oil kept the ivory from drying out and cracking. As long as the Olympics continued, the statue remained in good repair. However, the Christian emperor Theodosius I banned the Games along with all other pagan rites in 392 CE, and within a century the Zeus was destroyed.
At first glance the Statue of Zeus might not compare favorably to the Colossus, the other statue among the Seven Wonders. After all, Helios stood more than twice as tall. But Zeus was made of precious gold and ivory rather than common bronze. He dominated an interior space, no doubt amplifying his majesty. And he survived eight centuries while the Rhodian statue collapsed within sixty years. On balance it seems that the scales, as always, favored Zeus.
The sixth of our Seven Wonders resource boost events that will continue throughout Summer for the Ages! For the duration of the event, Farms, Caravans, and Oil Wells will produce:
• 80% More Food!
• 80% More Gold!
• 80% More Oil!
Library of Alexandria Event 8/27 - 9/3
The Library of Alexandria Event has begun!
The Great Library of Alexandria was one of the largest and most famous libraries of the Ancient World. The fate of the Great Library has been argued extensively. The main point of contention being whether it survived until the Arab conquest of Alexandria in the 7th century. There is evidence that the destruction of the two libraries, the Royal Library and a daughter library inside the Serapeum, occurred at different times. The Royal Library was victim to Julius Caesar’s involvement in a civil war in Egypt between Cleopatra and her brother Ptolemy XIII. To gain the upper hand over the Ptolemaic forces, Caesar set fire to the enemy fleet in Alexandria. It is believed that the destruction caused by that fire destroyed the Royal Library. The daughter library in the Serapeum, is believed to have survived until near the end of the 4th century. However, once Christianity became the one and only religion acknowledged throughout the empire, an imperial decree was issued sanctioning the demolition of temples in Alexandria. This led to an attack on the Serapeum, resulting in the destruction of the temple and the second library with it.
