The Greek term karyatides literally means "maidens of Karyai", an ancient town of Peloponnese. Caryatid is the name given to an architectural column which takes the form of a standing female figure. The most celebrated examples are found in the south porch of the Erechtheion on the acropolis of Athens, which consists of six figures. It is claimed that they constituted the visible portion of the grave of Kekrops, the mythical king of Athens. The figures were separately carved in Parian marble and affixed on slabs of grey Eleusinian limestone.
