LEGENDS have had a profound inliuence on the Greek people There was a time when legends inspired nearly all the reat art S produced by Greece.. A famous example of this fact is the Erect- heum on the Acropolis at Athens. It was erected to commemorate an event of great significance in the legendary histor of Athens, Y the famous contest between Athena and Poseidon to determine which of the two should be the patron deity of the city. Like the Propylaea, the Erectheum was never completed. It was begun about 421 B. C. by an unknown architect. The build- ing, however, reveals the highest attainment of the Ionic way of thinking in architecture. There are many notable characteristics in the construction of the Erectheum which make it different from the usual Greek architecture of that day. The door of the north porch, for ex- ample, is historically significant as the first example of a portal in Athens framed in stone instead of wood. Another striking differ- erence is in the unique design ofythe south porch. The figures of six maidens are used in supporting the architrave of this porch, while the other two employ the traditional pillars. The six caryatides of the Porch of the Maidens have borne their burden well throughout their twenty-three hundred years of existence. Having looked upon many of the greatest scholars the world has ever known, having seen two thousand years of history unfold itself before their eyes, they would, could they but speak, provide man with knowledge of a priceless nature. They are silent in ageless beauty. Aged Erectheum shows evidence of war's devastation One of Three Porches, the south porch differs from the others in having the figures of six maidens to support the architrave.
