THIS ARTICLE WAS PREVIOUSLY AN ANOMALOUS OBJECT BUT HAS BEEN RECLASSIFIED.
(see Addendum-XXXX-01)

Special Containment Procedures: SCP-XXXX is to be monitored by foundation security under the guise of local police. The public is allowed to observe and utilize SCP-XXXX as a tourist attraction. Any loud, disturbing, or insulting guests are to be removed from the premises. A small, foundation security base should be inserted inside the ███████ city's police department, which will be referred to as Outpost-186. This is where foundation security should observe SCP-XXXX with monitoring devices.

SCP-XXXX-1 during Phase 1, in containment.

If at any point, SCP-XXXX enters Phase 2, a perimeter should be set up around SCP-XXXX, in which SCP-XXXX is not visible. The public is to not be let into this perimeter, under the guise of plaza maintenance. Any attempt to enter should be immediately quelled by security agents. Those who enter and are caught should then be forced out of the perimeter. While in Phase 2, any individuals who try to get photo or video evidence of SCP-XXXX should be stopped. Any photo or video evidence should be destroyed or wiped from the device it was taken on. These procedures should be held throughout the phases until SCP-XXXX returns to Phase 1.

If SCP-XXXX enters Phase 3, a pre-prepared gift basket of meats (or ancient war equipment, preferably meats) should be delivered to SCP-XXXX from Outpost 186. Meanwhile, a firing line should be set up, surrounding SCP-XXXX. If the gift basket arrives in time, the firing line is to only be taken down after the arch mirror descends. If the gift basket is not on time, the firing line is to be notified and should prepare their weapons. All SCP-XXXX-2 are to be shot unless specified by Dr. Maddox¹

Description: SCP-XXXX is a statue constructed of Parian marble², that is approximately 15 feet tall, including the stone stand it sits on. The statue's stand has a plaque inscription on it, that changes along with the statue. It is located in ███████, Greece and has been confirmed to be of Greek origin. The sculpture depicts a man in ancient Greek attire, sitting on a podium. The podium has been observed to change itself when in stressful situations. These situations include, but are not limited to: When the statue is under attack, the land surrounding it is being damaged, and/or the plaque is being defaced.

SCP-XXXX changes in phases. These phases have been observed to not always go in order (e.x SCP-XXXX going from Phase 1 to Phase 3). The phases are as follows.

Phase 1

Phase 1 is SCP-XXXX's continuous state. Nothing abnormal occurs in this state. The plaque reads, "Brothers, the sun rises. Be at rest, for the time will come when the marble speaks."

Advancement to Phase 2 can be induced by being reckless around SCP-XXXX, shouting insults or profanities near and at SCP-XXXX, and by attacking any part of SCP-XXXX (statue itself, the plague, and/or the stand)

Phase 2

Phase 2 is when abnormal activities begin. SCP-XXXX changes positions, the man now standing. His right arm is reaching at the sky, attempting to grasp the sun. The plaque reads, //"Brothers, the dwellers wish to disrespect us. Sharpen sword against stone and ready yourselves. Await the word from the marble gods.

Advancement to Phase 3 can occur from assaulting the statue or the land around it, continued profanities and insults, or continued reckless behavior.

Phase 3

Phase 3 is the climax of abnormal activity that SCP-XXXX experiences. SCP-XXXX changes its position once again. SCP-XXXX can be seen with Greek-style armor on. The statue holds a sword and points it forward, an angry expression present on his face. The plaque reads, "Brothers, the marble gods shout and clamor for us as they are attacked by the dwellers, march forward, and do not fear the dwellers, for their weapons are only thorns in your sides!"

After 30 minutes of SCP-XXXX being in Phase 3, without any attempts to move them to stage 4, a rumbling will occur in the proximity of SCP-XXXX, whilst a large, stone archway will rise from the ground behind SCP-XXXX. The inside of this archway is a mirror, although it seems to be a dimensional portal. After almost 10 minutes of the archway rising, floods of Ancient era soldiers will emerge from the portal, with Greek armor on. They are armed with medieval weaponry, mostly on melee weapons though. Ranged weapons have rarely been documented. They will be collectively referred to as SCP-XXXX-2.

SCP-XXXX-2 will flow from this mirror for random times, the maximum recorded time being 1 hour and 30 minutes. The portal will then descend after the last instance of SCP-XXXX-2 exits. SCP-XXXX will then go into Phase 4.

Phase 4

Phase 4 is a "recovery" phase which always occurs after Phase 3. Phase 4 is automatically entered after the end of Phase 3 or can be induced if "gifts" are given to the statue before SCP-XXXX-2 exits the archway to attack. Gifts that have been proven effective are meats and ancient weaponry. One of SCP-XXXX-2 will come to receive the gift after the gift has been placed in front of the mirror. It is unknown how they can detect the gift basket. SCP-XXXX returns to Phase 1 after being in Phase 4 for 45 minutes.

SCP-XXXX can be seen sitting on the podium, their back being slouched and a visible expression of tiredness. If SCP-XXXX entered Phase 4 after releasing SCP-XXXX-2, visible cracks can be seen in the statue. These cracks persist after Phase 4. As of now, there are 2 individual cracks, measuring approximately 3 inches each. The plaque reads, "Brothers, rest your head and mend your wounds, for we have fallen. But do not fear, for this war is not over, against the formidable dwellers."

Addendum-XXXX-01: The following is an incident log that occurred 6 months before the first discovery of SCP-XXXX. Any staff involved with this incident are to not be reprimanded, as the occurrence of the third phase of SCP-XXXX was not known.

10:04: Security agents reported a band of vandals that spray-painted on the plaque of SCP-XXXX. Security staff apprehended the vandals.
10:06: Security agents had apprehended half of the individuals and began to follow the containment procedures for Phase 2.
10:09: SCP-XXXX entered Phase 2. Phase 2 containment procedures had been completed.
10:11: Agents were notified of the remaining vandals, who broken past the perimeter and had begun to deface the plaque.
10:12: Security apprehended the remaining vandals and continued to enforce Phase 2 containment procedures.
10:22: Security staff we're notified of SCP-XXXX advancing to Phase 3. Agents began to investigate the change.
10:24: After an agent read the plaque, all other agents were notified.
10:26: Captain Loukas Vidalellis ordered security agents to be on high alert and more directly guard SCP-XXXX.
10:52: The archway rose, Loukas Vidalellis ordered any remaining security agents to report to SCP-XXXX.
11:00 Barriers were set up, under suggestion from security agent Daniil Pavlelis.
11:02: SCP-XXXX-2 began to exit the archway. Agents opened fire after SCP-XXXX-2 rushed forward.
11:05: SCP-XXXX-2 stops exiting the archway. Security agents remained alert.
11:06: The archway descended.

The following statement was made, after this incident.

After careful consideration from me and my colleagues, this anomalous object should be reclassified as an SCP. I and my colleagues have already assigned a lead researcher to this SCP, that should utilize Outpost 186 as a research center. Extra resources have been assigned to Outpost 186, to allow this new SCP to be contained with ease.

- Janet Glydwyn, Reclassification Committee member.
