The greatest architectural and (скульптурный) project of the first half of the 5th century was the Doric (храм) of Zeus at Olympia, whose construction and decoration may be dated 470–456 bce. The (храм) was the principal building of the (святилище) at Olympia, center of the (происходящий один раз в четыре года) games that provided one of the few unifying threads in the chaotic life of the endemically warring Greek city-states. The (храм), which has disappeared but for the (стилобат) and the lowest drums of the (колонны), has been carefully excavated, and its appearance can be reconstructed with accuracy. It was built of local (известняк), coated with a (штукатурка) made of marble dust, but the (скульптура) and (кровельная черепица) were of Parian marble. The architect, Libon of Elis, designed a peristyle six (колонны) wide and thirteen long. Something of the grandeur of its original appearance may be felt in
the probably contemporary and somewhat smaller (храм) of Hera II
at Paestum, despite its more massive proportions and (тесно расположенные) of (колонны) due to local taste. Libon's (колонны) are (более стройные) and more elegant than any we have seen so
far, and both their (энтазисы) and the projection of their capitals are (более изысканный). Both interiors utilized the double row of superimposed (колонны) we saw at Aegina.
