Parthenon,

- Temple that dominates the hill of the Acropolis at Athens. It was built in the mid-5th
century BCE and dedicated to the Greek goddess Athena Parthenos (“Athena the
Virgin”). The temple is generally considered to be the culmination of the
development of the Doric order, the simplest of the three Classical Greek
architectural orders. Although the rectangular white marble Parthenon has suffered
damage over the centuries, including the loss of most of its sculpture, its basic
structure has remained intact. A colonnade of fluted, baseless columns with square
capitals stands on a three-stepped base and supports an entablature, or roof
structure, consisting of a plain architrave, or band of stone; a frieze of alternating
triglyphs (vertically grooved blocks) and metopes (plain blocks with relief sculpture,
now partly removed); and, at the east and west ends, a low triangular pediment, also
with relief sculpture (now mostly removed).
