Earth to Elysian Fields Emathia to Eretria Erginos to Eulimene Eumaios to Exomis
A group of Greek sculptures of the fifth century BCE; originally on the Parthenon in Athens and supposedly sculptured under the direction of Phidias.
The sculptures are presently on display in the British Museum in London; they were named after Thomas Bruce, the seventh Earl of Elgin (1766-1841) who arranged for their removal from Athens.
