Briareus was another giant, remarkable for having fifty heads and a hundred hands. […] This statue, still perfect, is so called from having been in the possession of the Medicis family. […] The god is represented as having just discharged an arrow from his bow against the monster Python. […] Brahma, having finished his work, has but one temple in India. […] It is very ancient, having been built before the Aztecs conquered Anahuac, as that part of Mexico was formerly named.
