hexastyle

The temple was hexastyle and peripteral, and is supposed to have had fourteen columns on the sides.

This once elegant edifice was of the Doric order, a hexastyle, the columns twenty-seven feet in height.

The architecture is said closely to approach that of the hexastyle hypthral Temple of Pstum.

Hexastyle: Having six columns; as in the case of octastyle for eight.

A large proportion of the Greek temples were built in this manner, and were called hexastyle from the six columns on the front.
