THE PANTHEON 128 AD Rome, italy \

Sketch: Exterior

Sketch: Interior

HISTORY 27 AD – General Marcus Agrippa Son-in-law of Emperor Augustus Rectangular structure in center of the city 80 AD – damaged by fire 80 AD – rebuilt under Emperor Domitian 110 AD – struck by lightning and burned down

HISTORY 118 – 128 AD – rebuilt under Emperor Hadrian Rotunda walls, dome each took 4-5 years “Marcus Agrippa, son of Lucius, in his third consulate, made it.” 609 AD – Given to Popes by Emperor Phocas

FORM Corinthian columns 60 tons each Dragged, floated, and rolled all the way from Egypt – Nile River  Mediterranean Sea  Tiber River Granite, with marble bases and capitals

FORM Rotunda (round room with dome) Still the world's largest unreinforced concrete dome (no steel rods) Perfect sphere (the height to the oculus and the diameter of the interior circle are the same, 43.3 meters) Sources of light – oculus and entry door Lighter concrete on upper levels reduces weight Hidden chambers within the rotunda form a honeycomb structure – also reduces weight Coffers and oculus also reduce weight Floor is still the Roman original Interior is deliberately made to outshine the exterior
