| The magnificent beauty of these regal creatures cannot be described any better. Eagles have been used
to symbolize strength and precision; they have an established link with many cultures. Possibly, the strength and beauty emanating from these wondrous creatures have led mankind to create a strong
link to these virtuous birds. The Indians and Aztecs hold the eagles close to their culture. The Aztecs for instance bound a strong link of the eagles to the sun and compared the daily journey of the
sun to an eagle's flight and journey during the day. The Romans too held eagles to have a special place in their lives. When the Roman Emperor Augustus died in A.D.14, his body was taken to the the
Campus Martius where a towering funeral pyre awaited him. The Emperor was placed on the pyre and as the torch was applied to the base of the pyre, an eagle was released from the summit of the burning
mound, symbolizing the ascent of Augustus's soul to the gods. Sometimes, the eagle's feathers were also used to carry importance in war ceremonials and in healing rituals. Indian tribes from the
Central and Southern American regions developed their own customs of acquiring the sanctified eagle feathers which were considered to be powerful and revered possessions. Eagles are destined for the
skies and the beauty and grace that emanates from these regal creatures are best confined to their oneness with nature. Our beautiful choice in eagle statues and eagle sculptures celebrates these
magnificent birds. No other creature can match the poise and grace that is typical of these marvelous birds.
