Pillar Capital Styles

The Stoa of Attalos has three pillar styles. Doric, Ionian and a unique style belonging to Pergamos.
There is one more common style of pillar which is not present on this building, the Corinthian style.


Doric Style Pillar

Ionian Style Pillar


A style of pillar unique to Pergamos. This is the first time I've seen one of these. Previous times I've come here (before 2014) the upstairs was closed.
