Greco-Roman world and Latin. "Greco-Roman" architecture is the architecture of the Roman world that followed the principles and style established in ancient Greece. The most representative building of that era was the temple. Other prominent structures that represented the style included government buildings, like the Roman Senate, and cultural structures, like the Colosseum. The three primary styles of column design used in temples in classical Greece were Doric, Ionic and Corinthian. Some examples of Doric architecture are the Parthenon and the Temple of Hephaestus in Athens, while the Erechtheum, which is located right next to the Parthenon is Ionic. The Romans made
The Five Orders of Architecture five orders, with indication of their shadows and the first principles of construction"; "The Five Orders of Architecture according to Giacomo Barozzio of Vignola, to Which are Added the Greek Orders"; and "The five orders of architecture, the casting of shadows and the first principles of construction based on the system of Vignola". The book tackles the five orders, Tuscan, Doric, Ionic, Corinthian, and Composite in separate sections, each subdivided in five parts on the colonnade, arcade, arcade with pedestal, individual pedestals, and entablatures and capitals. Following those 25 sections were some less related parts on cornices and other elements.
