	Classical Period - Culture
		The temple's interior was clearly influenced by the architecture of the Parthenon: this section was probably completed in the course of the Peloponnesian war.
		Its similarities with the Hephaesteum have persuaded many experts that the two buildings were designed by the same architect, who may also, some scholars think, have been responsible for the temple of Nemesis at Rhamnus and the temple of Ares at Acharnae.
		Like the Hephaesteum, the temple of Poseidon had six by thirteen columns (the other dimensions of the two are also comparable), but taller and more slender.

	Temple of Hephaestus - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Temple of Hephaestus in central ancient Athens, Greece, is the best-preserved ancient Greek temple in the world, but is far less well-known than its illustrious neighbour, the Parthenon.
		The temple is also known as the Hephaesteum or Hephaesteion.
		It is sometimes called the Theseion (Greek: Θησείο, thisio), due to a belief current in Byzantine times that the bones of the legendary Greek hero Theseus were buried there; in fact the bones alleged to be those of Theseus were buried in the 5th century BC at another site nearer to the Acropolis.

	How Much for a World-Historic Home? - May 2, 2005 - The New York Sun
		Meier's new building at 165 Charles Street, together with the Perry Street Towers he completed two years ago, just to the north, calls for the sort of formalist analysis usually reserved for comparisons between, say, the Parthenon and the Hephaesteum in Athens.
		Which is to say that, in structures so closely matched, the slightest difference takes on a critical importance.
		Just as the columnar width of the Hephaesteum and the regularity of its triglyphs fall just short of the brittle energy that distinguishes the same elements in the Parthenon, so 165 Charles Street causes us to see, through its slightly finer detailing, something ungainly in its twinned forebears to the north.

		Her greatest invention of all, however, was the art of weaving.

		By all the same arguments that condemned the cleaning of the Parthenon sculptures in the British Museum, the stripping of the 'patinas' from the Hephaesteum with steel chisels and wire brushes, should not have happened.
		Let us be clear; the Hephaesteum cleaning is not mentioned here with the intention of attaching scandal to it.
