The word “colossus” refers to a statue that is very large and impressive, often representing a deity or important figure. More broadly, it can also denote something of enormous size or power, such as a person, organization, or thing that has significant influence or presence. The term originates from the Colossus of Rhodes, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, which was a giant statue that stood at the entrance of the harbor of Rhodes, Greece.
