Hypaethral is an ancient temple with no roof. (From the Latin ''hypaethrus'', from Ancient Greek ὕπαιθρος ''hupaithros'' ὑπό hupo- "under" and αἰθήρ aither "sky, air".) It has instead a hypaethros or hypaethral opening. It was described by the Roman architect Vitruvius in his treatise ''On Architecture'' written for the emperor Caesar Augustus probably about 15 BC. This term is in distinction from cleithral, which is covered with a roof.〔(Hypaethral and Roofless Structures ). DrBillong.com.
