Amphiprostyle description |
---|
In classical architecture, amphiprostyle (from the Greek (amphi), on both sides, and (prostylos), a portico) denotes a temple with a portico both at the front and the rear. The number of columns never exceeded four in the front and four in the rear. The best-known example is the tetrastyle small Temple of Athena Nike at Athens. * Amphiprostyle temples without columns on the sides may be termed "apteral" (from the Greek , "wingless": -, "without" + , "wing"). The Athena Nike temple is one such example. |
