This temple features a row of steps leading up to a porch, both free standing and engaged columns, and an inner sanctuary room all atop a raised podium. Created in a similar fashion, there stands the Lincoln Memorial in Washington D.C. Dedicated to Abraham Lincoln in 1922, this memorial’s creation differs in the fact that its birth was inspired by a mortal man, rather than a god; a symbol of gratitude and reverence, and not an offering to garner blessings for the future. Be that as it may, the Lincoln Memorial immortalizes Abraham Lincoln in a nineteen foot tall marble statue that is seated just inside the building.

The Lincoln Memorial has a total of thirty-six free standing columns enclosing the structure, while the Ancient Roman temple has only six (www.washintondc-go.com).
