What is the intended function of any statue? *sigh*

Representation for purposes be it remembrance, worship or historic.

A Greek named "Phidias" made the statue, in ancient era when Greeks worshiped those gods, and the statue of Zeus is there for the same reasons a statue of Athena was made. Worship. The same way you find statues of Jesus.
