A singular architectural feature consisting of a door or opening that provides access from both sides of a wall or structure.
From Greek 'amphi-' (on both sides) and 'thyron' (door), literally a door accessible from either side.
This concept appears in ancient Roman-Greek architecture and influenced later palace design—imagine a secret passage door that looks like a wall from one side but opens from the other.
