Characteristics of a Greek temple
OREINTED TOWARDS THE EAST CREPIDOMA (Crepidoma is an architectural term related
to ancient Greek buildings. The crepidoma is the platform on which the superstructure of the building is erected. The crepidoma is usually, three levels. The levels typically decrease in size incrementally, forming a series of steps along all or some sides of the building. The crepidoma rests on the euthynteria (foundation), which is normally constructed of locally available stone for the sake of economy.The topmost level of the crepidoma is termed the stylobate, because it is the platform for the columns. The lower levels of the crepidoma are termed the “stereobate”.)

Parts of a Greek Temple The top section is
angled and is called the pediment. The sloping top part is
called the sloping cornice.
The triangular part below is called the tympanum. This is often carved and decorated.

Temple of Parthenon, Athens (447-432 B.C)
A slight curvature is given to the stylobate, entablature and the cornices with an upward rising of 6omm on the shorter sides and 120mm on the longer sides .which if straight in reality could have appeared to sag of drop in the middle
The intermediate columns were 1.8m dia. And the corner columns were 1.9m in dia.,Thus made shorter and stouter ,which otherwise would have looked thin and flimsy.
