• the Doric temple - built 430-420 BCE, 61 m (190 feet) long, 26 m wide, built upon a platform of 4 steps, with a total of 36 Doric columns supporting the stone roof-frame of the structure (14 columns along the lengths of the building, 6 columns across front and back). The columns are of a "rough" finish because they were apparently never "fluted", the temple never reaching completion. The temple seems also to have lacked a roof over the cella (main chamber) in antiquity, rather uniquely - scholars are in disagreement as to whether the temple was deliberately planned this way, or just never completed.
• the Amphitheatre -
