Vatican



Category: My latest Europe trip | Posted: Fri Oct 28, 2005 11:04 pm

The Vatican Museum is actually a number of museums joined together.
Here are some pics from the museum housing the statues.


And one of Diana. Roman Goddess of Light, Moon Goddess, Queen of Heaven, Lunar Virgin (note that to the Romans, “virgin” meant a woman who had never been married or pregnant, not a woman who had never had sex), Goddess of Wildwood, Divine Huntress, Protector of Animals, Lady of Beasts.

Nice photos Craig. They sure love their statues don't they.

The statues room was about 500-600 metres long! Statues everywhere. I did wonder about some of the statues, they seemed out of place.
Some were of Egyptian goddesses, etc and I wondered why they were in a Christian church.

However, it was fascinating.
