Friday Oct 4 Roman Architecture Project

Good Morning,

Let's start our Roman Architecture project today. If you recall you drew an example of Roman Architecture last week. You can use that or a different one if you choose.

You can find more Roman Architecture examples here:

After you've picked a building answer these questions in detail:

  1. When was it built? 
  2. How many years did it take to build it?
  3. Who was responsible for building it? (which emperor or architect or other Roman citizen)?
  4. Where is/was it? Print this map of ancient Rome to show where it was built: http://www.starkclassroom.com/uploads/Map_of_Roman_Empire.pdf
  5. Explain its condition today. Use descriptive words and provide detail.
  6. What materials were used to build it? click here to read more about materials: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ancient_Roman_architecture#Materials
Please finish the questions for homework.
