Kzanol was a Thrint who fell in the Atlantic Ocean off Bermuda on Earth and remained in stasis.

He was discovered by Dolphins in 2106 and brought into contact with the Human telepath Larry Greenberg. Greenberg was temporarily overcome by Kzanol's power, absorbed all experience and memories of Kzanol and thus much knowledge about the Thrint Empire became known to Human scientists.[1]

Kzanol remained in stasis and was put on permanent display in the United Nations's Comparative Cultures Exhibit at the Smithsonian Institute. He is sometimes known as the Sea Statue.[1][2]
