In 480 BCE, King Xerxes crossed by land and sea against Greece. The eastern army and navy overshadowed their foe, Goliath to a Greek David. The bravery and cunning of Greece’s victories, the Persian defeat, shaped the self-concept of the Early Classical age, 480-450 BCE. This study centers on a few of the finest Greek sculptures from those decades. It discusses how artists’ representations of the Olympians, Zeus, Apollo, differ from those in the poetry and visual arts of earlier Greece. The origin of these differences are new concepts of divinity set forth by early Greek philosophers. The theologies of these early abstract thinkers were popularized and introduced to a wider public by Greek tragedians, educated, inquisitive, and curious of new ideas.
