columns in the hypsethral part: the lower were
Doric, the upper Corinthian, and the outer columns
Ionic.1 Of the Temple of Ceres at Eleusis, it is
recorded that " Metasrenes added the diazoma and
the upper columns ; "a thereby showing that it was
of two orders. We may likewise class the Temple
of Apollo at Miletus in the number of temples which
are known to have had a double colonnade within,
Choiseul Gouffier informing us that he had dis-
covered in the centre of the ruins a Corinthian
column of much smaller diameter than the outer
Ionic." And such we know was the Temple of
Jupiter at JEgina. The only exception to this rule
is the Temple of Apollo Epicureus at Bassas, the
cella of which was ornamented with a single row of
columns. That a gallery generally existed on a
level with the upper colonnade is very probable ;
an arrangement highly valuable for the display of
the numerous Avorks of art with which we know the
temples to have been decorated. Such a gallery
we know to have existed in the temple of Jupiter
Olympius at Elis, Pausanias telling us that " those
who desired to see the statue of Jupiter, could do so
by ascending to the upper colonnade."'1 For other
instances of galleries, see page 307. Such a gallery
we also know to have existed at iEo-ina : though in
the Temple of Neptune at Psestum, and some temples
