GUTTAE. Drops, in architecture, used principally under the triglyphs of the Doric order, in the architrave, and under the taenia (Vitruv. iv. 3., 4.), as in the annexed example (Guttae/1.1); but sometimes also applied under the mutules of the order (Vitruv. iv. 3. 6.), as in the example s. Epistylia, p. 262. They are shaped like the frustra of cones, and represent the drops of water which distil from above, and hang in pendant drops below.
