GREEK AND ROMAN ARCHITECTURE. 253 houses, all of which have perished or have been destroyed, and only a few remains of their walled cities survive.
...The gate of Perugia (Fig. 303) is the remains of a characteristic Etruscan building. The arch is seen in perfect construc- tion, and the Doric frieze ; above is seen a little Ionic column. Etruscan architecture was mostly a kind of Doric with a round shaft. According to Vitruvius the Etruscan temple consisted of three cells, with one or more rows of columns in front, the distance between the columns, or intercolumniation, being much greater than in Greek temples. Sometimes the temple consisted of a circular cell only and a porch, like the later development of this form in the Roman temple at Tivoli, and the Mausoleum of Hadrian.
