抄録

The peripteral temple which has central single row of column in the naos was especially consecrated to the horrible chthonic deities. The pteron sealed destructive power of these chaoic gods in the naos. The central row of column was originally the metaphor of calmed Chaos, therefore these temples ought to have took this type of naos. On the other hand, the pteron and the naos obtained metaphorical meanings which were the earth and the underground through the Greek mythological thinking on agriculture. That is, the temple is the metaphor of the earth which enclosed the horrible demonic beings in the underground, thus, the ground gave them the order by means of the sealing. Eventually, this metaphor of the temple is accurately coincide with the mythological spatial thinking of the Gaia and the Tartaros in Hesiod's "Theogonia".
