Ten papers (two in English) from a colloquium held at the Institute of Egyptology in Vienna in 1997 discuss the emergence of Archaic Greek temple architecture and its relation to the New Kingdom of Egypt. The majority of the papers focus on the design, construction, decoration and religious significance of particular buildings to demonstrate influential contacts with Egypt. Contributors discuss, for example, the monumental architecture of Samos, the construction techniques of the Archaic temple at Isthmia, the Temple of Hera at Olympia and the Temple of Artemis at Corfu. Other papers compare the religious architecture of Ephesus with Egypt and discuss the wooden features of Egyptian temples.
