The aim of this paper is to analyze the architectural planning method of the elevation of the Nereid Monument at Xanthos. The analysis led to the conclusion that the dimensions of each part in both the upper structure, the order and above, and the lower structure, the podium and below, were derived from the dimension of the axial intercolumniation with the use of a“ yardstick” of 0.310m as a foot. Many of the design dimensions of the elevation of the Nereid Monument, similarly to its floor plan, show complete figures, demonstrating that the construction aspect was taken into account at the planning stage.
