The Temple itself was constructed in the mid 5th century BC, at roughly the same time as the Parthenon and the Temple of Hephaestus in Athens. Made of marble mined from nearby Agrileza and dramatically perched on a cliff overlooking the ocean, the Temple of Poseidon of Sounio is now made up of a rectangle of restored large Doric columns. Hexastyle in its original design (6 columns in width x 13 columns in length), only 16 of the original 38 columns remain. #templeofposeidon #greece #travel Temple Of Hephaestus, Temple Of Poseidon, Doric Column, Places In Greece, The Parthenon, A Level Art Sketchbook, A Level Art, Historical Place, The Temple
