The Temple of Apollo in Thermon

     The temple of Apollo in thermon is in Aetolia, Greece. Constructed by accent Greek, and used praise the god Apollo. Apollo has been variously recognized as a god of music, truth and prophecy, healing, the sun and light, plague, and poetry. It was named after the hero Thermos who was killed by his own brother, Oxylos, who was crowned the king of Elis.

     “The sanctuary was destroyed by the Hellenic Kingdom of Macedonia in 218 and again in 206 BCE in revenge for the Aetolian's destructions of Dion and Dodona, and it was abandoned after the Roman conquest and the dispersal of the Aetolian League in 167 BCE.”My first impression on it I’ve noticed from its plans is that it is the classical standard accent Greek. It has a lot of ornamentals It has ionic capitals, a columns, and more than one entrance. It also doesn’t have one continues material throughout the structure.
