Answer:
A Greek temple used to shelter a god's statue
Step-by-step explanation:
Parthenon is the name of a temple, erected in the fifth century bc on the Acropolis, a mountain located in the center of the city of Athens, and whose structure, despite time, conflicts and pollution, is still preserved. The word Parthenons means "the virgin's room," and the purpose of such a building was to pay homage to the goddess Athena.
According to studies conducted, the white marble temple was originally painted in a striking manner in the colors red, blue and gold. In the so-called "worship room," there was an image of Athena, of wood, with an ivory and gold finish of approximately 10 m in height, decorated with bracelets, ornaments and other decorative elements; the eyes were made of precious stones and on his chest was the head of one of the gorgons (monsters of Greek mythology) in ivory. Each of the priestesses had a special room in the temple.
