Terrace of the lions
The Terrace of the Lions in Delos Greece which was dedicated to Apollo by the Naxos people before 600 BC originally had between nine and twelve marble guardian lions along the Sacred Way. The remaining orginial lions have been removed to the Delos Archelogical Museum and what remains outdoors exposed to the elements are copies.
