Site plan of the Acropolis at Athens 1 Parthenon 3 Erechtheum 5 Propylaea 15 Odeon of Herodes Atticus 18 Theatre of Dionysus Eleuthereus

PROPYLAEA The entrance to the Acropolis was a monumental gateway called the Propylaea.

ERECHTEUM A TEMPLE DEDICATED TO ATHENA POLIAS (GODDES OF THE CITY)

PARTHENON A TEMPLE DEDICATED TO ATHENA PARTHENOS. IT WAS BUILT IN DORIC ORDER & ALMOST EXCLUSIVELY IN PENTELIC MARBLE

PARTHENON The large building on the top of the Acropolis. It was completely made out of pentelic marble and surrounded by freestanding columns. Its was built in Doric Order & almost exclusively of pentelic marble. The Parthenon retained its religious character in the following centuries & was converted into a Byzantine church, a Latin church and Muslim mosque. The Parthenon is a Doric peripteral temple, which means that it consists of a rectangular floor plan with a series of low steps on every side, and a colonnade (8x17) of Doric columns extending around the periphery of the entire structure. Each entrance has an additional six columns in front of it. The larger of the two interior rooms, the naos, housed the cult statue. The smaller room (the opisthodomos) was used as treasury.

COMPOSITE ORDER The composite order is a mixed order, combining the volutes of the Ionic order capital with the acanthus leaves of the Corinthian order. A volute is a spiral scroll-like ornament that forms the basis of the Ionic order, found in the capital of the Ionic column. Francesco Borromini (1599–1667) developed the composite order in San Carlo alle Quattro Fontane, Rome, (1638). The Composite order, due to its delicate appearance, was deemed by the Renaissance to be suitable for the building of churches dedicated to The Virgin Mary or other female saints.

GOLDEN SECTION In mathematics and the arts, two quantities are in the golden ratio if the ratio of the sum of the quantities to the larger quantity is equal to the ratio of the larger quantity to the smaller one. The golden ratio is also called the golden section The Parthenon’s façade as well as elements of its façade and elsewhere are said by some to be circumscribed by golden rectangles. Ancient Greek mathematicians first studied what we now call the golden ratio because of its frequent appearance in geometry.
