30 What are the Similarities of the Greeks and Romans? How have the ancient Greeks and Romans influenced our buildings?

31 Roman Advances in Architecture Romans were well known thieves. Although most of their ideas were stolen from other societies Romans improved upon the stolen YouTube - Ancient Rome 3D ideas and made them great. Arches Bigger & Better Concrete inventors Dome Buildings wide open buildings Aqueducts Their own idea of running water system, clean cities. Bath houses houses with heating and running water.

32 Roman Aqueduct Ancient Rome had eleven major aqueducts, built between 312 B.C. and 226 A.D.the longest (Anio Novus) was 59 miles long.

33 Aqueducts Pont Du Gard Aqueducts provided water for people in a town or village. The Greek had underground canals and galleries, hewn out of the rock to lead the water to dry pastures. The Romans were the first to construct aqueducts the way we know them: --a line of arches joined together, with a channel on the top to carry water.

34 Aqueduct Technology Closed pipes were occasionally used to cross valleys by the "inverted syphon" method. The pressure forced the water down and up again on the other side, to a level slightly lower than before.

35 Aqueducts in America Croton Aqueduct, New York City, NY, 1842 Provide clean water to the growing city. Cabin John Bridge, Washington Aqueduct, Washington, DC, 1852

36 The Arches Arch of Constantine is the Ancient Roman Corinthian style arch that has a bearing Masonry construction system. Arch of Severus is the A classic example of the triumphal arch type. Arch of Janus Arch of Titus is the triumphal arch, gateway 36

37 Ancient Rome s Architecture Pantheon The Pantheon, one of the most impressive buildings in Rome, as rebuilt in A.D (by Emperor Hadrian to replace an earlier temple designed by Agrippa in 27 B.C.) The original rectangular temple, consisting of sixteen single granite columns, became the porch for the newly devised dome structure. 37

38 Colosseum YouTube -Modern Marvels: The Colosseum

39 Amphitheaters Amphi- means "around" in Greek. Amphi-theatres are "theatres in the round The amphitheatre was the place where people went to see fights. These fights were between slaves, prisoners of war or criminals, and sometimes wild animals They were usually outdoor arenas where people watched sporting events and plays.

40 Amphitheaters in America Michigan State University, Stadium Arlington, Virginia

41 Theaters The theater was shaped with a half circle or orchestra space in front of the stage. The structure was built into a hillside and the wall behind the stage structure was relatively low. To solve the problem of lighting and sound - the theaters were outdoors. Dodoni Ancient Greek Theater, Northwest Greece Dodoni was a vital center from about 2000 BC and flourished well into the Roman times.

42 Theaters -American Boston Pops, Massachusetts

43 Greek Theater Formation Orchestra: The orchestra (literally, "dancing space") was normally circular. Theatron: The theatron (literally, "viewing-place") is where the spectators sat. Skene: The skene (literally, "tent") was the building directly behind the stage. Parodos: The parodoi (literally, "passageways") are the paths by which the chorus and some actors made their entrances and exits.

44 Ancient Roman Baths Public baths were an important part of Roman life. Early baths generally had dressing room suites and bathing chambers with hot-, warm-, and cold-water baths alongside an exercise area. Later, they incorporating libraries, lecture halls, and vast vaulted public spaces elaborately decorated with statues, mosaics, and paintings. 44

45 Bath Houses Aqueducts provided the water to the public baths. Heated and cooled baths. Dirty water was replaced with clean water. Exercise and message rooms were available.

46 Bath House -Heating The system the Romans had for maintaining their baths. In the cold and hot areas, the water temperature was actually regulated by the use of underground fire furnaces.

48 Brief History Ancient Greece is considered by most historians to be the cultural foundation of Western Civilization. Greek culture was a powerful influence in the Roman Empire, which carried a version of it to many parts of Europe. Ancient Greek civilization has been immensely influential on the language, politics, educational systems, philosophy, art and architecture of the modern world. The Roman Empire's influence on government, law, and monumental architecture, as well as many other aspects of Western life remains visible today.
