The Hellenic style which followed the Mycenaean is, however,
the recognized Greek type of architecture, which was
essentially columnar and trabeated and this gave it that simple,
straight-forward character in which the constructive system is
self-evident, uncomplicated by such devices as are involved in
arch, vault, and dome. The general character of early Hellenic
architecture is archaic and severe, and Mycenaean influence is
apparent; but a gradual change towards refinement took place,
and columns became more graceful and mouldings more
refined. Unity of effect in the larger temples was obtained by a
single, uniform colonnade which surrounded the naos.
ARCHIGROUP R.R.Y
Stability was achieved by a judicious observance of the laws of
gravity, as the pressure of the superimposed weight acted
vertically, and consequently only needed vertical resistance.
What were these constructive conditions which called for that
simplicity of treatment characteristics of the style?
a. Openings are sometimes narrowed towards the top, as in the
doorway of the Erechtheion.
b. Greek architecture was essentially a trabeated style, and
openings were square-headed and spanned by a lintel.
c. Lintels of any great length in stone or marble would not, by
reason of the granular nature of this material, withstand
pressure from above without support from below, so columns
had to be placed close together.
d. Facades of windowless temples, which would otherwise have
been monotonous, were varied by alternation of light and
shade, produced by the succession of free-standing columns
and the shadows in the openings between them.
