The Greeks put numbers on the top of the columns so that workers could assemble the pieces correctly. Something like the diagrams that come with things that say "some assembly required".
Ionic columns. These were made by the ancient Greeks to decorate their temples and tombs. These columns were by far the most royal of the time. - question answered by Kerrigan Pruett. info gotten from book.
In many cases, such as in the Parthenon the rows of columns would appear to be concave (an optical illusion) because of the fluting, or the lines, that run from the top to bottom of the columns. The Greeks knew this however, so they figued out how to build up the middle of the pillars to make them appear strait.

It identifies the column. Columns are identified by letters. Rows are identified by numbers.
A column in Excel is the vertical (up and down) list of cells. You can think of columns the same as columns on a building that go from the top to bottom of a spreadsheet. The horizontal direction (e.g., left to right) is called a row.A row of numbers or data will go along from left to right, while a column will go from top to bottom (vertically).
In a spreadsheet you will have lots of figures. In the same way that you write numbers under each other to do calculations on paper, they can be arranged in columns on a spreadsheet. A spreadsheet will have lots of columns of numbers. It is important to know what the numbers in each column are for, so at the top of each column of numbers a heading should be put to make it clear what those numbers refer to. It could be things like Wages, Sales, Tax, Price and so on. You will also have columns that have text in them, and they would also have headings on them. You might have a list of names and at the top have a heading identifying what the names are like Students, Staff, Managers, Salesperson or whatever. Without column headings spreadsheets would be a lot harder to understand, so they are very important.
They did that through entasis, creating an optical illusion. Normally the columns would seem to become narrower higher up when you were looking up at them. Entasis, a little bulging out in the middle of the column segments made the column appear straight and of uniform width.
the top to bottom are known as columns or groups
