An Introduction to Greek City States and Architecture By Mr. Owen Cegielski

Architecture Since much of ancient Greek life was dominated by religion, the temples of ancient Greece were the biggest and most beautiful. They served a political purpose as well, and were often built to celebrate civic power and pride. The Greeks developed three architectural systems, called orders, each with their own distinctive proportions and detailing. The Greek orders include Doric Ionic Corinthian Let’s take a look at each…

Doric The Parthenon, built in the 5th century BC, is an example of the Doric order. It is a temple of Athena Parthenos ("Virgin"), Greek goddess of wisdom, and is located on the Acropolis in Athens.

Ionic The Temple of Athena Nike is an example of the Ionic order. This temple is part of the Acropolis in the city of Athens.

Corinthian The Corinthian style is seldom used in the Greek world, but often seen on Roman temples. The temple of Zeus at Athens, completed by Emperor Hadrian in the 2d cent. A.D., was perhaps the most notable of the Corinthian temples.

Activity: It’s Greek to Me! Greek City Google Sketch Up Project Objective: To understand the architectural features and characteristics of Ancient Greek city states. Research Guidelines--Each group will research one of the following topics: 1) Ancient Greek Temples 2) Ancient Greek Forts 3) Ancient Greek Theatres 4) Ancient Greek Houses and Marketplaces As you collect information on your topic, you will complete the Research Collection Sheet. Good place to start: http://www.ancient- greece.org/architecture.html . You must rewrite all information. Do not copy other people’s words! You must also site each reference source that is used. Once finished with your research, your group will design and build a 3-D model of your topic. If the computers are available, we will use a computer program called “Google Sketch Up” to render the models. Otherwise, we will build them out cardboard, clay or another material.

The City-State Some Things to Remember… ☼Greek temples were the biggest and most beautiful buildings in a city- state. Religion was very important in the life of an ancient Greek, and so were the temples. ☼A wall was built around every city. The forts were built on top of a high flat hill (acropolis). The people were very proud and wanted to protect their way of life. ☼Theatres were used in celebrations. Male actors wore large masks that served as voice amplifiers. Males and females were allowed to attend. ☼Homes and marketplaces formed around the forts. Streets intersected at right angles around the buildings. Homes were built around courtyards and were decorated with little furniture because the people did not want to have more than the temples. ☼Ancient Greeks were proud and political people. They were very loyal to their small city-states!
