Great catch, Jack! Interesting too that APOLLO can mean “apple man”. Moreover, “Amongst the god’s custodial charges, Apollo became associated with dominion over colonists, and as the patron defender of herds and flocks.” (wikipeida).

Wow! Sound anything like one Jack Shepherd? Apollo was also regarded as the God of healing and medicine (amongst many other things that don’t necessarily make my argumnent). Lots of strange similarities….I don’t think the Apollo & refernces are at all a coincidence. There’s still more to figure out here, dammit!

nice catch!

I didn’t notice that. I was just wondering whether there were any little easter eggs in ‘the end’, or even season 6 for that matter, as i hadn’t read about or seen any.

I wonder if there are any more?

No what the entire season has had little tidbits like this. I believe if we followed up on every little thing we saw we would find thousands of interesting points like that.

Thanks, wasn’t sure about that.

Yes, they were banished, good point – but I think all of humanity was supposed to be banished? Though in the Lost world I’m guessing someone was left behind after the banishment to guard the Garden of Eden (if it’s the island)… sort of a curse and blessing at the same time for the guardian.

JacksAppendix: totally agree!

Clairespeanutbutter… I also saw three skeletons. One all by itself, and then another two lying together.

I do think there were 3 skeletons in the cave plus I believe God banished Adam and Eve from the Garden didn’t he?

Nice catch!

I wonder… were there two or three skeletons in the cave of light? If there were two – perhaps, the real Adam and Eve?
Interesting to think about….

I think it’s cool, even in the last episode, the writers were still throwing in little nuggets like that.

Great catch on the Avalon bar!

The name Apollo can also be derived from the Celtic word ‘Abal’ – apple. So, Apollo is also known as Apple-man.
