Best Answer

Ancient Greek temple and other public buildings were mainly constructed of stone by the Egyptian Stone Frame method. These replaced earlier timber structures. The stone used was mainly local marble and limestone.

Houses were mainly mud brick, or timber, but fired clay bricks began to be used with a similar lime mortar to that used for the stone buildings

Roofs were mainly thatch in early Ancient Greek construction, but fired clay roof tiles in both curved and flat forms were used more later in the period.

Temples were built from marble and limestome.

Many temples, like the Parthenon at the Athenian Acropolis, were made of marble. Others, like the temple of Zeus at Olympia, were limestone. Greeks built using the materials they had access to.

The Greeks built their temples out of sun-dried bricks and wood. In a later stage, they built the temples out of marble.
