A pteron is an architectural term to describe an external collonade most often found in a Greek temple.

The term was used by Pliny the Elder to describe the peristyle of the tomb of Mausolus. As it was raised on a podium, the pteron at this tomb was unlike those found at other ancient Greek temples.
