The ornate supports and slabs are both elaborately decorated marble from the local quarries.

I could almost say that the marble was added later. Posted by SoupMeister 12/2/2004 4:51 PM | remove   It's interesting, 'cause even the 'normal' stone is partially marble. The entire mountain's made of it. Posted by rainman8889 12/4/2004 1:19 PM | remove   Probably the 'normal' stone is a lower grade of marble which weathered more quickly. Posted by SoupMeister 12/4/2004 1:32 PM | remove   Almost certainly. There's some sandstone and slate on that mountain. You know, come to think of it, the weathered bits may be the first layer of stucco, the brownish stuff. Posted by rainman8889 12/6/2004 3:43 AM | remove   Most likely. Would need a closer look or photo to say for sure. This is a really neat pic. I like it. :-) Posted by SoupMeister 12/7/2004 8:45 PM | remove   I think if you look along the left edge of the leftmost window under the balcony, you can see the brown thing is covering the masonry and is quite thick. Probably stucco. Anyway, weather (and light) permitting, I'll take the new digicam to Greece and shoot some higher-detail photos of the masonry.
