Gold Leaf Crown

The Greeks awarded laurel crowns to the winners of athletic competitions like the Olympics, and the Romans reserved them for triumphant military commanders. This is where the expression ΓÇ£resting on oneΓÇÖs laurelsΓÇ¥ comes from, as it describes someone whoΓÇÖs sort of coasting through life thanks to a great but past achievement. See?
