The 107-foot (30 m) bronze statue of the god Helios was at the harbor of the island Rhodes, Greece, and was one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. It was built between 292 and 280 BC and destroyed by an earthquake in 226 BC.
The Titan of Des Moines.
Weather ad erosion knocked them all off the map except for the pyramids. They were built to last, and little damage has been inficted upon them. Erosion due to winds and strms and such caused them to be less shiny. The Lighthouse at Alexandria was flooded and fell into the sea. The Colossus at Rhodes, the Mausoleum of Maussollos, and the Hanging Gardens of Babylon fell due to an earthquake. You get the idea. I hope I helped. . this not completely true for those of you who intersd there was a wonder in nz which was the pink and white terraces . they were destroyed by fire .and the valley then flooded Julie.
The ancient greeks were the first. From Latin colossus, from Ancient Greek κολοσσός (kolossos, "large statue, especially the colossus of Rhodes").
The Colossus of Rhodes was not rebuilt because when it got knocked down by an earthquake and oracle told the people of Rhodes not to rebuild it. The Colossus of Rhodes is a statue of Helios the God of the Sun.

There were several and most were destroyed
The Great Pyramids of Giza The Hanging Gardens of Babylon (destroyed) The Statue of Zeus at Olympia (destroyed) The Temple of Artemis at Ephesus (destroyed) The Mausoleum of Halicarnassus (destroyed) The Colossus of Rhodes (destroyed) The Lighthouse of Alexandria (destroyed)
I think that would be the Colossus of Rhodes, or possibly the Pharos.
