Rhamnous: Temple of Nemesis

Temple of Nemesis (Nemeseion) at Rhamnous, Attica. Greece. Mid-5th c. BCE.

The temple of Nemesis, the Nemeseion, which was built sometime in the mid- 5h c. BCE. Other archaeological finds in the area denote worship of Nemesis as early as the 6th c. BCE. It exhibits the typical divisions of a cella, pronaos, and an opisthodromos in antis. Visible in this photos are the column drums with the incomplete flutes (only visible at the bottom), which mean that the temple was probably left incomplete.
