context_page_description: The Nike of Callimachus also known as The Dedication of Callimachus, is a statue that the Athenians created in honor of Callimachus.
context_section_description: The statue depicts Nike (Victory), in the form of a draped woman with wings running right, on top of an inscribed Ionic column. Its height is 4.68 meters and was made of Parian or Pentelic marble. Some parts of the statue such as the head, the hands and more were never recovered after the damage.
  The neck of the Nike has nine holes for metal jewelry, which has been lost. She probably held a caduceus in her hand.
