The Nike of Callimachus ((ギリシア語:Nίκη του Καλλιμάχου)) also known as ''The Dedication of Callimachus'', is a statue that Athenians created in honor of the Callimachus. == History ==
Callimachus was the Athenian polemarch at the Battle of Marathon at 490 BC. He had the last vote and he voted in favour of a battle, when the 10 strategoi were split evenly on the matter. He was killed at the battle and Athenians erected the statue for him.〔(Herodotus Book 6: Erato, 114 ) "In this part of the work was slain the polemarch Callimachos after having proved himself a good man,..."〕 The statue was erected in a prominent spot near the northwest corner of the Parthenon (not the Parthenon that we can see today, but the previous temple which destroyed by the Persians) on the Acropolis of Athens. The statue has been severely damaged by the Persians when a decade later (480 BC) conquered Athens. They burned and destroyed the city and its monuments, including the Nike of Callimachus (Perserschutt).
