Statue of Stephen F. Austin
Stephen F. Austin is a statue of Stephen F. Austin by Elisabet Ney, originally modeled in 1893.

Two carvings exist: one installed in 1903 in the Texas State Capitol, and the other installed in 1905 as one of the two statues from Texas in the National Statuary Hall Collection in the United States Capitol in Washington, D.C. In each case it is accompanied by a second statue, Sam Houston, also by Ney and produced in parallel.

Statue
A statue is a free-standing sculpture in which the realistic, full-length figures of persons or animals are carved or cast in a durable material such as wood, metal or stone. Typical statues are life-sized or close to life-size. A sculpture that represents persons or animals in full figure, but that is small enough to lift and carry is a statuette or figurine, whilst those that are more than twice life-size are regarded as colossal statues.

Statues have been produced in many cultures from prehistory to the present; the oldest-known statue dating to about 30,000 years ago. Statues represent many different people and animals, real and mythical. Many statues are placed in public places as public art. The world's tallest statue, Statue of Unity, is 182 metres (597 ft) tall and is located near the Narmada dam in Gujarat, India.

Monte Albo
The Monte Albo (Monte Arbu in Sardinian) is a limestone massif 20 kilometres (12 mi) in length in the central eastern portion of Island of Sardinia, Italy.
Punta Catirina and Monte Turuddo, both at 1,127 metres (0.700 mi), are the highest points. The massif forms a prominent hogback ridge characterized by dramatic vertical cliffs on its northwestern flank and extensive karst features, including sinkholes, collapse features, and underground water systems. Monte Albo's geological composition consists primarily of Middle Jurassic to Lower Cretaceous limestones and dolostones deposited on a Palaeozoic metamorphic basement, which have been uplifted and tilted by tectonic forces. The mountain is recognized as a biodiversity hotspot, hosting 18 amphibian and reptile species, including 8 endemic taxa such as the Monte Albo cave salamander, which is found exclusively in this massif.

Tectonics
Tectonics (from Ancient Greek  τεκτονικός tektonikós 'pertaining to building' via Latin tectonicus) are the processes that result in the structure and properties of Earth's crust and its evolution through time. The field of planetary tectonics extends the concept to other planets and moons.

These processes include those of mountain-building, the growth and behavior of the strong, old cores of continents known as cratons, and the ways in which the relatively rigid plates that constitute Earth's outer shell interact with each other. Principles of tectonics also provide a framework for understanding the earthquake and volcanic belts that directly affect much of the global population.

Tectonic studies are important as guides for economic geologists searching for fossil fuels and ore deposits of metallic and nonmetallic resources. An understanding of tectonic principles can help geomorphologists to explain erosion patterns and other Earth-surface features.
