The ancient Greek contemporaries Ictinus, Callicrates, and Phidias, are jointly credited in the creation of the Parthenon, in Athens, during the rule of Pericles, circa -440.
Although nothing is known about his life or artistic personality, Iktinos, along with Kallikrates, acted as the architect of the Parthenon, according to Plutarch.
There has been some suggestion that Kallikrates might have been the official city architect of Athens, and that he was more concerned with the technical and managerial aspects of architecture than with formal design.
Kallikrates, the object of her desire, resists her but is overwhelmed by the power of her will.
This war between the spirit & the flesh meant that, "The spirit of Kallikrates was always [hers], having been given to [her] from the beginning, but with his flesh it was otherwise, & perchance while he is in the flesh it will so remain" (Wisdom 141).
Her final appeal, the one that anchors Kallikrates to her in spite of Ayesha's terrible power, is to the blood of their dead son.
