In classical Greek architecture, a stylobate (Greek: στυλοβάτης) is the top step of the crepidoma, the stepped platform upon which colonnades of temple columns are placed (it is the floor of the temple).[1] The platform was built on a leveling course that flattened out the ground immediately beneath the temple.
