View looking northwest at the exterior of the Temple of Athena.  It dates to approximately 500 B.C.  It is surrounded by 6 x 13 (the typical n x [2n + 1] formula) Doric columns on a three-tiered base (= crepidoma).  The upper portion of the temple is reconstructed from architectural elements found in the area.
