44 Greek Architecture. of Lysicrates, in which we see the Egyptian and Asiatic features combined with the Ionic. This monument was erected in 334 B.C. (Fig. 20.) Fragments have lately been found of the colossal mauso- leum at Halicarnassus, erected to Mausolus, king of Caria, by his widow Artemisia, in 353 B.C. It was one of the Seven Wonders of the World, and we must consider it to have been the finest structure of the kind ever discovered. Some marble pilasters with richly inlaid panels, a statue of the king in several pieces (now joined together, and at the British Museum), and part of the quadriga (i. e. four- horse chariot) which crowned the monument, were amongst the ornaments excavated. Asia Minor also contains a good many remains of fine buildings of the Corinthian style belonging to this age. Such are the temple of Athena at Priene, dedicated to the patroness of the arts by Alexander the Great, and the famous temple of Apollo at Miletus — a huge dipteral building, 303 ft. long by 164 wide.
