AMU - G Potentate Throne Deux!
Thrones were found throughout the canon of ancient furniture. The depiction of monarchs and deities as seated on chairs is a common topos in the iconography of the Ancient Near East.
The word throne itself is from Greek θρόνος (thronos), "seat, chair", in origin a derivation from the PIE root *dher- "to support" (also in dharma "post, sacrificial pole"). Early Greek Διὸς θρόνους (Dios thronous) was a term for the "support of the heavens", i.e. the axis mundi, which term when Zeus became an anthropomorphic god was imagined as the "seat of Zeus". In Ancient Greek, a "thronos" was a specific but ordinary type of chair with a footstool, a high status object but not necessarily with any connotaions of power. The Achaeans (according to Homer) were known to place additional, empty thrones in the royal palaces and temples so that the gods could be seated when they wished to be. The most famous of these thrones was the throne of Apollo in Amyclae.

Exotic but incomplete
Very very nice model for evil RP situations.
The back has a hole in the mesh, but place it against a wall or add a stone background / dais and there's no problem!
Lower LI would be nice, but it's still a fantastic object.
I want more like this!
Good enough for me
There is a tear at the back but if your using this as I am, as a sorceress' throne, no-one should be able to go behind it to see it.
This is exactly the type of throne I was looking for and has been the only one so far that "wow"ed me
Should have checked the reviews.
This looked like a great throne, but I was mistake. I don't care about scripting, I can do that myself. But seeing a gaping damn hole in the back of the throne was not expected, and the seller should be ashamed of not informing buys of this possibility outright, as well as misleading the buyer by not showing it in the product images. DO NOT BUY THIS ITEM.
Buyer beware.
This is an amazing sculpt...BUT...it has no sit script, the seat is very low to the ground, the back has a giant tear and it has a land impact of 47. It needs some work.
