A pediment is a triangular stone or brick located above the
entablature(roof), usually supported by columns. The pediment is
surrounded by cornice molding. Cornice molding is a decorative
molding made to hold something and make it stand out. The area
around the pediment was usually decorated with sculptures
demonstrating scenes of Greek mythology. In modern time the
pediment was used for non-structural design over windows and
doors.
