Final answer:

The Pantheon's portico columns follow the order: Doric at the bottom, Ionic in the middle, and Corinthian at the top.


Explanation:

The order of the columns that support the portico of the Pantheon follows the sequence:

  1. Doric order on the ground level (sturdiest)
  2. Ionic order on the second level
  3. Corinthian order on the third level (lightest)

This arrangement is based on the principle of placing the strongest order at the bottom to support the structure and the lightest order at the top for decorative purposes.
