The Colossus of Rhodes

Trip Anthropologist Podcast

In this episode of the Trip Anthropologist podcast, cultural anthropologist Monique Skidmore interviews expert Rhodian tour guide, Adrien Bordrez. Through layers of history, mythology, invasion, domination, alliances, and global trade, Adrien shows us the richness and depth of culture evident on the beautiful island of Rhodes.
No trip to Rhodes is complete without a visit to the site where the great Colossus of Rhodes once stood as the entrance to the harbor of Rhodes. Made from siege engines, destroyed and abandoned on the order of the Oracle of Delphi, this is a great story.
