Definition
In architecture, relating to or constructed above columns; arranged or occurring above the columns of a building.
Etymology
From Greek 'epi-' (upon) + Latin 'stylus' (column), describing architectural elements or structures positioned above or upon the columns.
Kelly Says
Greek temples have incredibly precise architectural vocabularies—'epistylar' helps architects describe every level and relationship between building parts, from ground to roof.
