What types of columns were used to build the Parthenon?

Currently doing Classical Civilisation GCSE, not only did they have Doric style columns (characterised by their rather plain capital (that little ring thing at the top of the column) and lack of entasis/base) but they also housed Double Doric columns in the naos with it's cult statue.
