In ancient Greece, Athens, there was a sculptor named Perillos…
He presented a brazen bull to Phalaris, who was also its tyrant…in reality the statue was a torture chamber…it was a statue that contained a man completely…it had a mechanism to put a man inside and lock it from the outside…
After that, a fire is set under this statue….the man sitting inside is burnt to death in the heat of this fire…another peculiarity of this is that the sound of the burning man can be heard outside like the sound of a bull through a special sound system…
The sculptor Perillos, who presented such a tool to king Phalaris, was actually expecting a gift…but king Phalaris decided to test this tool on top of the sculptor Perillos…so the sculptor himself became the first victim.
the king threw the burned sculptor from the hill. It is said…times passed…the tyrant Phalaris was overthrown by the people themselves in a riot..the new leader Telemachus burned Phalaris on the same bull
