When were the Caryatics made?

The Caryatids, sculpted female figures used as architectural supports, are most famously associated with the Erechtheion temple on the Acropolis of Athens, which was completed around 406 BC. These figures were designed to replace traditional columns and serve both a structural and decorative function. The Caryatids exemplify the artistic innovation of the Classical Greek period, showcasing intricate drapery and graceful postures.
