In classical architecture, amphiprostyle (from the Greek ἀμφί (amphi), on both sides, and πρόστυλος (prostylos), a portico) denotes an ancient temple with a portico both at the front and the rear,[1] where the columns on the narrow sides are not between antae.
[2] The number of columns rarely exceeded four in the front and four in the rear.
The best-known example is the tetrastyle small Temple of Athena Nike at Athens.
[4] Amphiprostyle temples without columns on the sides may be termed "apteral" (from the Greek απτερος, "wingless": α-, "without" + πτερον, "wing").
