    Anta (architecture)

    An anta (pl. antæ) (Latin, possibly from ante, 'before' or 'in front of') is an architectural term describing the posts or pillars on either side of a doorway or entrance of a Greek temple - the slightly projecting piers which terminate the walls of the naos.

    In contrast to pillars, they are directly connected with the walls of a temple. They owe their origin to the vertical posts of timber employed in the early, more primitive palaces or temples of Greece, as at Tiryns and in the Temple of Hera at Olympia. They were used as load-bearing structures to carry the roof timbers, as no reliance could be placed on walls built with unburnt brick or in rubble masonry with clay mortar. Later, they became more decorative as the materials used for wall construction became sufficient to support the structure.

    When there are columns between antae, as in a porch facade, rather than a solid wall, the columns are said to be in antis. (See temple.)

    Better Grieved Than Fooled

    by: Anata

    Tempted to believe?
    Even I, in my solitude
    Cried for help and wished for
    That someone would be there for me
    Better grieved than fooled
    And I'm prepared to accept my suffering
    To live with pain
    Is the price for a life in truth
    Me being the only lord
    I'm the one who can forgive
    And the only one to create
    A future worth believing in
    But I live a bitter life in truth
    And curse its powerless God
    (Lead: Schalin)
    (Lead: Allenmark, Schalin)
    I can deeply regret
    My clarity of vision
    Life had been much easier
    To live, getting high on faith
    Get a reason to live
    Have a blind faith in the future
    Forever stoned
    Forever blessed in cowardice
    Me being the only lord
    I'm the only one who can forgive
    Better grieved than fooled
    So I live a bitter life in truth
