This work focuses on the main dynamics of temple architecture, a fundamental section of ancient Roman Republican architecture. The purpose of this study is to reach a global vision of the architecture of temples in the Italic peninsula, through a detailed analysis of both the layout plans and the architectural decoration. The dynamics related to the typological construction schemes are thoroughly analyzed, in order to understand the singularity of the reception of Hellenistic models. Therefore, it examines in depth the relationship between the Italic sacred architecture and the influences imposed by the Greek-Hellenistic world.
