Prominent Location:
CHOOSING THE location for a sculpture is extremely important if the work is to look effective. The best approach is to decide where you want an object and then set about finding a piece that will suit the location. However, more often something irresistible is acquired which must be accommodated in an appropriate setting. Some pieces will dictate a likely location: a Bacchus will look most effective reeling out of the bushes, while a formal statue is ideally placed in a niche or in a more commanding position such as on a pedestal or balustrade.A Boat 26 feet or more in length with a machinery compartment must have an "oily waste pollution" placard posted in the machinery space or where the bilge Pump switch is located. Boats of this length must also display a "MARPOL" trash placard "in a prominent location." Craft 40 feet and over must have a written trash disposal plan.
Cult objects, like the axe, are prominent in Minoan religion, which was primarily concerned with nature. The chthonic aspect was not very prominent, except insofar as the great goddess was thought of as Mother Earth. Minoans may have believed in life after death; they buried their dead (often in large jars within the house) and offered them libations.
