decastyle การใช้

The front elevation ( east ) is organized around a central three story decastyle of angaged ( pseudo-peripteral ) Corinthian columns which rise from the building base.
The west and east sides of the temple ( the short sides ) had ten white columns ( " decastyle " ), and the south and north ( the long sides ) featured eighteen white columns.
However, at the time Vitruvius wrote ( c . 25 AD ) the " cella " of this temple was unroofed, because the columns which had been provided to carry, at all events, part of the ceiling and roof had been taken away by Sulla in 80 BC . The decastyle temple of Apollo Didymaeus near Miletus was, according to Strabo ( c . 50 BC ), unroofed, on account of the vastness of its cella, in which precious groves of laurel bushes were planted.
