The marble statue of Dioscuri in Copenhagen Square, Denmark
Dioscuri was a twin deity in ancient Greek and Roman mythology. They rescued the shipwrecked crew and were given a good wind by people offering sacrifices. Their mother was Leda and their father was Zeus, the king of the gods. Later Zeus placed them in the sky and became Gemini. In Rome, tradition holds that reverence for them was introduced in 484 BC. Orus Pastumius built their shrine on the square right after he swore at the Battle of Lake Rejilus. Legend has it that in this battle, Dioscuri fought on the side of the Romans and brought news of the victory to Rome.
