Columns are a type of architectural feature found in many buildings, both ancient and modern, and are typically cylindrical or rectangular in shape and can be made from a variety of materials such as stone, wood, metal, or even plastic, and are be used to support the weight of a structure above it or to provide decorative accents. Ancient Greek and Roman architecture often featured columns with intricate designs carved into them.
