Ashmole's engaging descriptions attempt to place the viewer within the original context of each site, as much as possible. These papers on the Temple of Zeus at Olympia, the Parthenon, and the Mausoleum at Halikarnassus each provide accessible introductions to the respective monuments in their full architectural and sculptural contexts. Along with Ridgway, Ashmole offers a lively and common-sense approach.
