Definition
In classical architecture, a half-triglyph; a triglyph placed at the corner of a structure showing three grooves instead of the full ornament.
Etymology
From hemi- (half) + triglyph (from Greek tri- meaning three + glyphein meaning to carve). Architectural term that describes corner ornaments in Doric order columns.
Kelly Says
In ancient Greek temples, a hemitriglyph is what you see at the corners where they cut a triglyph in half—this wasn't lazy architecture but a clever design solution that made the corners look balanced and intentional.
