Answer:

Option: A. Parthenon

Explanation:

Parthenon is an ancient temple built on the Acropolis in Athens, Greece. It is an example of classical art and architecture of the Golden Age of Athens that highlights beauty and glorification. The Parthenon performed a vital role in Athenian life, as a temple, artistic masterpiece and symbol of victory. The golden age of Athens dated from 449 to 431 B.C., when Pericles started cultural projects in Acropolis like the temple of Athena Nike, Propylaea, the Erechtheum and Parthenon. The Parthenon was built for the goddess Athena by Pheidias in fifth century B.C. The temple built to show the victory of Athens (with Greek forces) over defeating the Persian armies of Darius and Xerxes.
