Summary from English Wikipedia (enwiki)

The Colossus of the Naxians is a kouros statue made of Naxian marble which was about 9 metres high, now located in the Museum on Delos and originally from one of the islands of the Cyclades. The colossus is an example of archaic monumental sculpture and dates to the end of the seventh century BC. The colossus is one of the largest kouros statues yet known. Only the Kouros of Apollonas, which remains unfinished in the quarry at Apollonas, is larger at 10.7 m tall. The Colossus of the Naxians is now broken into many pieces.

Summary from Ελληνικά / Modern Greek Wikipedia (elwiki)

Ο Κολοσσός των Ναξίων είναι ένας κούρος από μάρμαρο Νάξου ύψους περίπου 9 μέτρων, ο οποίος σήμερα βρίσκεται στο Μουσείο της Δήλου και προέρχεται από ένα από τα νησιά των Κυκλάδων. Ο κολοσσός είναι παράδειγμα αρχαϊκής μνημειακής γλυπτικής και χρονολογείται στα τέλη του 7ου αιώνα π.Χ. Ο κολοσσός είναι ένας από τους μεγαλύτερους κούρους που είναι γνωστοί. Μόνο ο Κούρος του Απόλλωνα, που παραμένει ημιτελής στο λατομείο του Απόλλωνα είναι μεγαλύτερος, με ύψος 10,7 μέτρα. Ο Κολοσσός των Ναξίων είναι πλέον σπασμένος σε πολλά κομμάτια.

Summary from Suomi / Finnish Wikipedia (fiwiki)

Naksoslaisten kolossi (myös Naksoslaisten Apollon) oli suurikokoinen antiikin aikainen Apollon-jumalaa esittänyt kuros-veistos, joka sijaitsi Apollonin ja Artemiin pyhäkköalueella Deloksen saarella Kreikassa.

Summary from Deutsch / German Wikipedia (dewiki)

Der Koloss der Naxier aus Naxos-Marmor, der etwa 9 Meter hoch war, befindet sich im Museum von Delos, auf einer Insel der Kykladen, Griechenland. Der Koloss zählt zur archaischen Großplastik und entstand am Ende des 7. Jahrhunderts v. Chr., nach Angaben bei Hans van Wees um 580 v. Chr. Dieser Kouros ist der größte, der je aufgestellt wurde, und wurde als Monolith in einem Block vom Steinbruch nach Delos gebracht. Seine Errichtung ist Ausdruck der Konkurrenz zwischen den griechischen Städten, die sich zunächst in der zunehmenden Größe der errichteten Statuen ausdrückte, bevor sie dann die Form eines Qualitätswettbewerbs annahm. Lediglich der Kouros von Apollonas, der im Steinbruch bei Apollonas aus Naxos liegen blieb, ist mit 10,7 Metern größer. Der Koloss von Delos ist heute in mehrere Teile zerbrochen.
