The word “colossus” refers to a statue that is much larger than life size, often representing a significant figure or deity. It can also be used metaphorically to describe a person or thing of enormous size, power, or influence. For example, one might refer to a great leader or a monumental achievement as a “colossus” in their field. The term originates from the Colossus of Rhodes, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World.
