It is observable that all the columns were found erect, while 
the superstructure had fallen outwards, on different levels, in 
the earth, that has gradually buried the building, which proves 
the decay to have been gradual ; for, had it been effected by

entablature, which would have been about four modules ; and 
these agree with those of the Parthenon and Temple of The-
