The altar of the Temple of Apollo, Delphi, Greece. Artist: Samuel Magal

The altar of the Temple of Apollo, Delphi, Greece. The present Temple of Apollo at Delphi is the third on the site. The first temple, built in the seventh century BC, was burned down in 548 BC. The second was built by the Alcmaeonids in 531 BC. The third temple, built between 346 and 320 BC, preserved the elongated ground-plan of the Archaic temple and re-used the old column drums, but the detailing is of the late classical period.
