Unless you’re in the military or just really have a thing for weapons, you probably don’t know what a caltrop is. Basically it’s a spiky, nasty thing that, when spread over the ground by the hundreds, is pretty much going to put a stop - in a very bloody way - to whatever army is advancing on you.
The Colossus of Rhodes was a massive statue of the god Helios, about the size of the Statue of Liberty, and it was erected somewhere around 290 BC to commemorate a great victory.
