Between the pediment and the cornice a thick corded moulding is carried round the main building.
The walls of the main building near the entrance of Metalanim harbour form a massive quadrangle 200 ft.
In temples of the best class the floor of the gallery and of the central portion of the main building from entrance to altar are richly lacquered; in those of inferior class they are merely polished by continued rubbing.
