CO OZNACZA SŁOWO PEDESTAL
Piedestał
Cokół lub cokół to termin ogólnie stosowany do podparcia posągu lub wazonki. Chociaż w Syrii, Azji Mniejszej i Tunezji Romowie od czasu do czasu podnosili kolumny swoich świątyń lub propylei na placowych cokole, w samym Rzymie były one wykorzystywane tylko w celu nadania większego znaczenia oddzielnym kolumnom, takim jak Trajana i Antonina, lub jako podium do kolumn stosowanych dekoracyjnie w rzymskich łukach triumfalnych. Architekci włoskiego odrodzenia przejęli jednak pomysł, że żadne ciało nie jest kompletne, a gdy ich zlecenia były wykorzystywane do dzielenia i zdobienia budynku w kilku kondygnacjach, gzyms cokołu został przewieziony i ukształtowany parapety okien, lub w otwartych arkadach, wokół kortu, balustrada z arkadą. Wydaje się, że również wzięli pod uwagę, że wysokość podstawy powinna odpowiadać proporcjonalnie do wysokości kolumny lub pilastru, na którą się wspiera; a więc w kościele św. Jana na Lateranie, gdzie stosowany porządek ma znaczne wymiary, podstawa ma wysokość 13 stóp zamiast zwykłej wysokości 3 do 5 stóp.
