Heavenly Archer

After seeing Clash of the Titans (in 3D) last week I figured it was time to go ahead and post this picture.  I took it at the Huntington Gardens, and after a little research, I found out this is a statue of the Roman goddess Diana.  The statue is called Diana of the Chase, as she is a hunter.  Although she is a Roman goddess, she has a Greek equivalent, who is Artemis (she is not specifically called out in Clash of the Titans 3D, however her fellow gods are).  As she is a goddess and not human she can’t be instigating violence against the gods, but if she was a human and shooting up at the gods, it would probably be bad news for her.  

If you’ve seen the original Clash of the Titans, or the remake (which can be seen in 3D), you know that picking a fight with the Greek gods is a pretty terrible idea.  They’re gods after all, and have all kinds of powers and can crush puny humans pretty easily.  You would also know this is a bad idea if you’ve read anything about Greek mythology; if you can’t read though, you should see Clash of the Titans (in 3D) to learn that messing with gods is a bad idea.
