Surmounting this base is a broad platform upon which two buildings were built at its east and west ends. A stairway was erected in the middle of the platform, it was flanked by two pairs of stone masks of which only remains of their stone supports survive. The stairway and stone masks which start from the first platform act as a second base, on the top of which is another platform on which two temples were erected at its east and west ends. There is an additional stairway in the middle which leads up to the Acropolis' uppermost temple.
