The porch of the maidens

making the transition from sculptures to architechture, this is a great work of architecture called "the Porch of the Maidens". from around 421- 405 BC.

The Porch of Maidens, with six draped figures known as caryatids, on the north side of the Erechtheum atop the Acropolis
located on the erecthium, these large lady columns, called caryatids, are right beside the parthenon on the acropolis.
