Delphic Serpent Column – 3D MODEL

This is a partial replica of the serpent column and tripod at the Sanctuary of Apollo in Delphi. It was dedicated to Apollo to commemorate the Greeks who fought and won the battle of Plataea against the Persians. The 3 snakes represent the PanHellenic unity of the Greek people against the Persians and adversity, with the 31 coils representing the 31 united Greek cities. If the Greeks had not won, Rome would not have been the superpower that we know today.

This is a partial replica because only 18 coils are on this piece, due to our trying to make it more scaled to be used at the altar, Lararium, or sacred space, as well as bookshelf or display.  We ship it in 2 pieces (column, square base).
