What is a FRIEZE (pronounced freeze)?

A frieze is a decorative band of marble sculptures that runs on top of an ancient pillar, temple, or other building. They were very common during the Ancient Greek and Roman times. Many were just decorations of flowers, but others told stories through pictures about great festivals, heroes, gods, and goddesses.

This lesson’s focus is on the flowers decorating Ionic pillars at the Parthenon in Athens, Greece.
