Summary
Description: The British Museum, Room 19 - Greece: The Acropolis and Late 5th Century BC
Room 19 has Greek material from the later 5th century BC, including sculptures from buildings on the Athenian Akropolis. The Caryatid from the Erechtheion, dating from about 421-406BC, was one of six almost identical figures of women that took the place of columns on the south porch of the building.
