    A corbeled arch is an architectural system of rocks or bricks built into a wall to support a weight, thus making a strong and durable archway.

    A Greek citadel needed an entrance way capable of withstanding attack and providing the city with an awe-inspiring gateway.

    The Greeks created the corbeled gallery to satisfy these conditions.

    This archway was not only magnificent in its stature and design, but also gave the military a strategic advantage during wartime.

    This aesthetic culmination of beauty and utility now sits in the hills of Greece as a proud display of the power of art and the importance it wielded on the culture.
