This is why architects followed very strict mathematical rules for the construction of bulidings.The buildings are human-sized. The dimensions of temples are not as colossal as the Egyptians.They are made of stone. The most wonderful temples were built in white marble. Then the marble was painted in brigth red and blue colours that have been lost in time.The roofs are flats (double-sloped roof) and rest on high columns. The Greeks did not use arches and vaults.Depending on the shape and ornamentation of the columns, there are three types of orders: Doric, Ionic and Corinthian.
