Apollo

[dudebro28]

has anyone noticed the similarities between DHARMA and Apollo. The stations are named after things having to do with him. Also the Apollo candy bars

lostpedia.com points that out also. all the stations but two can relate to apollo (all except the pearl and the looking glass)

The Arrow -Apollo's most common attribute was the bow and arrow. He was a god of archery.

The Staff -The Caduceus staff originally belonged to Apollo. Apollo was a god of healing (and of plagues). Apollo traded the staff of Caduceus to Hermes for a lyre.

The Swan -When Leto gave birth to Apollo, the island on which he was born was encircled by a flock of swans. Swans were afterward sacred to Apollo.

The Flame -Apollo was a sun god.

The Hydra -Apollo sent a crow to fetch water. The bird stopped to eat figs and wasted lots of time. Knowing Apollo would be angry, the crow captured the Hydra and attempted to blame it for causing the delay. Apollo saw through the ruse.

If you watch the full version of the "Room 23 video" it shows the entirity of the statue (our 4 toes foot) and it looks like it could very well be Apollo.

I agree, is Apollo a Greek term do you know? I believe the statue is a Greek statue.

Apollo has the same name in both Greek and Roman mythology...he is one of the only gods this is true for
