Pausanias is a famous Greek travel writer and geographer from the second half of the 2nd century.
His description of Greece, describes old Greece as the writer knew her personally.
Other Greek writers do not have such detailed descriptions, so Pausanias is still a valued guide in the study of classical Greek culture and civilization.
The work belongs to the sources of archeology and history, especially the history of Greek religion.
With Pausanias, researchers were also given the opportunity to identify, many preserved monuments, both original Greek originals and Roman copies.
I think they adopted Corinthian order, for this type of orders can be seen on many cathedrals around Europe including those in France, Malta (Valletta), etc.
