介绍（中）	这些碎片被拼凑在一起，以证明用于寺庙屋顶的原始瓷砖的大小和排列方式。在古代，大多数屋顶瓦片都是由陶土制成的。这座巨大的寺庙使用了当地的大理石，这只是它的奢华和建造过程中花费巨大的一个迹象这些瓷砖通常是分开的锅和盖瓷砖（见图），但比希腊大陆大多数已知的屋顶瓷砖都要大。带凸起边缘的平底锅瓷砖一块接一块地铺在木椽上，成排叠放。三角形的覆盖瓷砖覆盖在瓷砖的凸起边缘上，并保护接缝。覆盖砖的下侧在前面有一个旋钮，相应覆盖砖的顶部在后面有缺口（见图）。这项措施确保了覆盖瓷砖能够贴合在一起，不会滑出位置。
介绍（英）	These fragments have been pieced together to exemplify the size and arrangement of the original tiles used to roof the temple. In antiquity, most roof tiles were made of terracotta. The use of local marble for those of this massive temple is but one indication of its lavishness and of the tremendous expense afforded in its construction. The tiles have the usual form of separate pan and cover tiles (see drawing) but are larger than most known roof tiles from mainland Greece. The flat pan tiles with raised rims were laid one next to the other, atop wooden rafters in overlapping rows. The triangular cover tiles fit over the raised rims of the pan tiles and protected the joints. The underside of the cover tiles have a knob at the front, and the tops of the corresponding cover tiles are notched at the back (see drawing). This measure ensured that the cover tiles fit together and did not slip out of place.
