Originally done in timber, the buildings of Ancient Greece switched to stone mined in quarries and hauled/shipped to the site. The largest had stone columns made of stone 'drums' and stone crossbeams supported by columns placed close together. The buildings were adorned with carvings and statues, all painted bright reds, blues and greens. These colors have worn off, and people today imagine that they were just plain marble and stone, but the reality is that the Greeks lived in a riot of color.
