The Tempe of Pompey was not built in a Greek style. It was a prime example of Roman theatre architecture, not Greek temple architecture. In fact it set the canons of Roman theatre architecture. Among other things, it was built on flat ground with its own foundation. This was a Roman architectural innovation. The Greeks only carved their theatres out of hillsides. They did not have any foundations.
