*spoiler space*
Apollo's arrow is in a museum on caprica. It isn't really an arrow. It's actually a key. The key will open the goddess Athena's tomb. Athena's tomb is on Kobol.
The people of Kobol made things very decorative objects often had more meaning than first glance. Although many things in the new series have changed the basic histories and principles have stayed the same. So if you read up on;
The History of Kobol and the Exodus of The Thirteen Tribes of Man.
You'll have a far deeper understanding and appreciation of the show.
Example. The gods on Kobol were the same as the ancient roman/greek gods. and by that, I mean they ARE the ancient roman/greek gods. But not in the sense that they were totally immortal and could see into the future and past and all that stuff. They were basically super-humans. Information on them is in the history. It's a great read.
Actually the best way to describe it is, If you watch stargate, the gods of Kobol are comparable to the Ancients.
The Prophecy states that everything they are doing right now has happened before. Different group of people, same story. Repeating over and over. The prophecy is basically that Kobol would fall to ruin and the 13 tribes of man would flee the doomed world (There was an ecological distaster and it became uninhabitable.) and form 13 colonies. 12 colonies moved not too far from kobol. but because it was technology that caused the disaster on kobol. they destroyed the majority of it and must of what they were became lost. History became legend, legend became myth.
Before the tribes left kobol a scout ship sent out by one of the gods actually found earth. But at the time that particular god did not want to face the reality that the planet was dying, he knew there would be an uprising if he wasn't discreet about it so he actually had the crew of the scoutship killed so no one would find out about it. But the 13th Tribe DID find out about it. And they left a few years before the rest of the tribes did. For a while they maintained contact on their journey to earth. Then one day they stopped talking.
Theres also a very interesting factor that I hope makes it into the show if they ever do show earth in the new series. The people of the thirteenth tribe did NOT destroy any of their technology. They kept it all. So if they keep with that, Earth is going to be far far far far more advanced that the galactica fleet and they could easily make playthings of the cylons.
anyways read up on the history of kobol. I told you interesting parts of it here but theres so much more. I hope this answers your question, and many more. Good day.
