	Hermogenes of Priene (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
		Hermogenes' rules on symmetry and proportion define what Vitruvius calls "eustyle" (eu stylos "right column"), an architectural ideal that prescribed a series of proportional relationships for temples that was all derived from the diameter of the column, as a module or unit of measure.
		The result is that sculptural elements of Hermogenes' Artemision are scattered among the Pergamum Museum, Berlin, the Louvre Museum, Paris and Istanbul.
		Hermogenes was also the architect of the hexastyle peripteral Temple of Dionysus in Teos, also mentioned by Vitruvius.

		Consequently, archaeologists have been curious to rediscover the site of Hermogenes' temple, traces of which are not apparent.Even the site of the colony of the mother-city of Magnesia in Thessaly was not established until W. Leake got the site correctlyidentified in 1824 (Journal of a Tour in Asia Minor pp 242ff).

	VITRUVIUS
		We can not admit that Vitruvius should have made such a mistake in situating his great predecessor in the wrong town; furthermore he is very meticulous in situating the examples of each style in their context; suddenly he should have ommitted this in his mention of 'a' temple of Apollo built by Menesthes.
		Hermogenes was clearly one of the most influential architects of this period.
		Hermogenes, who lived at the end of the third and the beginning of the second century B.C., was the most important architect of the hellenistic period in the Greek world.

		I have been thus particular on the pseudodipteros, because it displays the skill and ingenuity with which Hermogenes designed those his works; which cannot be but acknowledged as the sources whence his successors have derived their best principles.

		1 Following Alexander the Great, the classic Greek city states weakened; the kingdoms of the Hellenistic world attained positions of leadership; wealth flowed to their cities (Pergamon, Ephesos, Miletos, Priene and Antioch), so that the cities east of the Ionian Sea (modern Turkey, to a lesser extent Syria) were bridges between East and West.
		The gods are no longer so closely tied to their natural origins; they have become great urban gods.
		It continued to be a major centre of influence, though many of the formerly independent cities (Miletus, Priene, Magnesia, Smyrna, etc.) were downgraded or faded away (in some cases, because the harbours became so badly silted up that they were unusable).

		Fleury in his edition of 1990 thinks Vitruvius is using different sources for his description: in book III he clearly uses Hermogenes while in this chapter he uses another, not mentioned source, and confuses things.
		I tried a lot of calculations myself but couldn’t come to a satisfactory result.
		Also a comparison between the text and archaeological remains of different temples of Hermogenes and his colleagues and the period of Vitruvius stayed without result.
