limestone sculpture in the round (original) Subject: Hera (Greek deity)
Sphinxes (mythology) Image View Type: overall Image View Description: from front Measurement: 52 x 40 x 22 (centimeters, height x width x diameter)
wooden mount: 56 x 45 x 2 (centimeters, height x width x diameter) Description: This is a cast of a colossal limestone female head discovered at Olympia and housed in the site museum. The oval-faced figure looks straight ahead with large, flat, tortoise shell-shaped eyes. The irises are indicated with light incision. Most of her nose has been broken away (in the original) and her thin lips are turned up into a vague smile. The figure's hair is arranged in patterned, rounded waves at the forehead and is banded at the hairline with a narrow fillet. She wears a low polos decorated with vertical lines. Behind the left ear, which projects out from the head, is a cluster of stone. There is no right ear on the original and seemingly never was. The chin of the original is chipped. The face is generally planar and the back of the head is flat. This cast is attached to a dark brown wooden mount. The work was identified by its excavators as the head of the cult statue of Hera from the Temple of Hera in the Altis at Olympia, an identification that has been accepted by many subsequent scholars
others posit that it is the head of a Sphinx. Neither identification is secure. The figure's asymmetric anatomy has led some to the conclusion that it was not meant to be seen from the front and could also indicate placement in a pediment. Traces of paint were preserved on the hair and headdress of the original. Notes: Items in the Cornell Cast Collection are meant for inventory and reference purposes.

Reviews for "The Role of Pocono Raceway's Mascot in Engaging with Fans on Social Media"
1. John Doe - 2 stars - I was really disappointed with the Pocono Raceway mascot. It seemed outdated and unoriginal, like something from the 80s. The costume looked old and worn, and it didn't even fit the theme of the raceway or add any excitement to the event. I think they need to come up with a new mascot that better represents the modern and fast-paced nature of racing.
2. Sarah Smith - 1 star - The Pocono Raceway mascot was a complete letdown. It lacked personality and was not engaging at all. It seemed like the organizers just threw together a random costume and expected it to be a hit with the race fans. I wasn't impressed and it didn't add any value to my experience at the raceway. I hope they consider revamping their mascot to something more charismatic and exciting.
3. James Johnson - 2 stars - The Pocono Raceway mascot was just plain boring. It didn't interact with the crowd or create any memorable moments. It seemed like it was there just to fulfill some requirement rather than actually entertain the fans. I think they should invest in a new mascot that has more energy and can engage with the audience in a meaningful way.
4. Emily Thompson - 3 stars - While the Pocono Raceway mascot was not the highlight of my visit, it was also not terrible. It was just okay. The costume could definitely use some updates to look more modern and appealing, but it did make an effort to interact with the crowd. However, it lacked the excitement and enthusiasm that I was hoping for. Overall, it was a forgettable experience and I believe they could do better with their mascot.
