Greek victory columns?
#3
Pausanias the Laconian erected a column with his own guilded statue on it, do i have this wrong? I think he was condemned for his hybris back in Sparta, but i think he cared little.
This sounds like triumphal columns,but not exactly. As Stefanos said,they were positioned in Delphoi and other sanctuaries mostly (where people wouldn't have to bear this hybris every time they went to the Agora)
