And the length of the cella is to the length of the Temple as 2.87.3 : 4 ; 

 while its breadth is to the breadth of the Temple as 4 : 7. 



The front of the pronaos and that of the opisthodomos consisted 

 each of two columns between antaa. The diameter of one of these 

 columns is given by Blouet at M. 1.896 = 6.1505 ft., and by Adler as 

 M. 1.89 = 6.131 ft. 



The breadth of each of the antas of the opisthodomos is 



given by Blouet as M. 1.78 =5.774 ft. 



The space between antas and column =8.7714,, 



The space between the two columns is, in the \ 



pronaos. . . M. 3.128 = 10.1470756 VAv'ge 10.0932692 „ 

 in the opisthodomos, M. 3.064 = 9.9394628 ) 



Supposing these measures to be correct, the following hypothetical 

 dimensions suggest themselves ; but there is no certainty attainable 

 with the existins data. 



The breadth between the antse is 39.87375 ft., which is to the total 

 breadth of the cella as 31 : 40. 



The depth of the opisthodomos as measured by Blouet is M. 7.22 = 

 23.42 ft., — very nearly in the proportion to its breadth, within the 

 walls, of 7 to 12. 



23.26 : 39.87 : : 7 : 12. 



I have now gone through the principal measurements afforded by 

 the French and German authorities. A few others of less importance 

 will appear in the following tables, which exhibit in a condensed form 

 the results that have been thus far obtained in this investigation, and 

 which present (as it seems to me) an irresistible body of evidence as to 

 the scale adopted for determining the dimensions of the Temple, and as 

 to its principal proportions.* 



* Where two measures are given for the same dimension, the first is the 

 French ; the second, the German.
