	The Greek Parthenon (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Pericles appointed Ictinos (for the architectural structure) and Phidias (for the decorative sculptures) as designers of the Parthenon.
		The larger cella forced Ictinos to use 8 coloumns in the front (instead of the usual 6).
		Another peculiarity of the temple is the presence of a back chamber not connected to the cella called Parthenon which actually gave the name to the entire monument.

	The Parthenon and the Caryatids in the Acropolis (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Ictinos (Iktinos, Ictinus) was an Athenian architect employed by Pericles in the erection of the Parthenon, or famous temple of Minerva, in the Acropolis of Athens.
		Callicrates is asserted by some to have been his associate in this undertaking; but, according to Vitruvius, Ictinos and Carpion were the joint architects of the Parthenon.
		Ictinos also erected the temple of Ceres and Proserpine, at Eleusis; and the temple of Apollo at Epicurius, in Arcadia.

	The Dimensions of the Parthenon (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Nevertheless, we may console ourselves with the thought that since Ictinos was an architect, his main form of communication was through the stones of the Parthenon and not through the pen.
		But one fact is clear: since Ictinos wrote a book on the proportions of the Parthenon, it follows that these proportions constituted a system that was per se of intellectual significance and appeal.
		The greatest wrong against Ictinos’ work was not committed by Christians, Turks, Venetians, and so on, but by the scholars who, because of laziness and conscious intellectual obscurantism, did not want to follow him in his extreme concern with exact measurements and proportions.

		A personal friend of Pericles, he was the creator of the gold-an-ivory sculptures of Athena (on the Acropolis) and Zeus (in Olympia) and the controlling mind behind all sculptural and-perhaps-architectural work on the Acropolis.
		His spirit and aesthetics remain on the Acropolis where along with the architects Ictinos and Kallikrates created a majestic yet anthropometric environment by organizing the space to be neither complex nor incomprehencible by the human mind.
		They fused two different architectural orders and gave image to the union of the Ionic and Doric world under the "auspices" of Athens, thus giving visual language to the Athenian political imperialistic attitudes.
