This was a temple built in honor of Athena, the Greek Goddess of War and the obvious namesake of the city of Athens. It wasn’t built in such a way that was linear of even symmetrical, but rather the goal was to build a temple that was alive, and had an energy unlike anything else in Athens. For example, the number of columns on each row is different. Unfortunately, much of this place has been ruined over the years due to wars.
