As far as I can remember this is the statue of Kleoboulos, the tyrant. Tyrants, by the way, not in the 'now' sense but as in sole ruler. The statue can''t really be missed since to get into Lindos' only entrance road you will pass him.
Nearby is the "The Tomb of Kleoboulos" (not photographed) : This has no connection with the tyrant of Lindos, but was the tomb of a wealthy family. It is a circular structure with carefully built masonry and a vaulted roof. The doorway has a cornice decorated with palmettes. On the inside a bed hewn out of the rock was a kind of sarcophagus and had a cover, which has not survived (2nd-1st c. BC). Traces of wall-painting and the name "Ayios Aimilianos" testify to its conversion into a Christian church in a later period.
