The Olympia Temple in Greece was built between 470 BCE and 457 BCE in the city of Olympia, the most sacred site in Greece. It took 13 years to construct and was made from Parian marble, a fine-grained white marble quarried on the island of Paros. While it was similar in structure and column design to other temples, it differed in the god it was dedicated to and number of columns. The architect was named Libon and followed the Doric style.
