4 ROMAN ART By: Holden Graves

5 WHAT WAS ROMAN ART LIKE The Romans art was a lot like the Greeks. They placed Greek-style statues in their homes and public buildings. There art was very detailed and very beautiful. They usually used marble to carve there sculptures.

6 ROMAN ART Roman art is a very broad topic, spanning almost 1,000 years and three continents, from Europe into Africa and Asia. The first Roman art can be dated back to 509 B.C.E., with the legendary founding of the Roman Republic, and lasted until 330 C.E. (or much longer, if you include Byzantine art). Roman art also encompasses a broad spectrum of media including marble, painting, mosaic, gems, silver and bronze work, and terracottas, just to name a few. The city of Rome was a melting pot, and the Romans had no qualms about adapting artistic influences from the other Mediterranean cultures that surrounded and preceded them.

8 ENGINEERING AN EMPIRE By Michael Romines

9 CAESARS BRIDGE In 55 b.c, Julius Caesar lead 8 legions, about 40,000 troops, North through Gaul. He wanted to cross the Rhine river, and nobody have ever crossed it with an army fit for conquest. He had to cross it with a bridge 4 football fields long and 40 feet across;it had to be strong enough to hold 40,000 troops. His troops did this in only 10 days. The force on the other side, 10 times the size of the Romans, ran when they saw the Romans cross. When the Romans came back, they took down the bridge so no one could cross it.

10 THE FLAVIAN AMPHITHEATER Also known as The Coliseum, it was built after Nero killed himself and Vespasian took over. It was the tallest building in Rome, and could hold 70,000 people comfortably. It had 110 drinking fountains, and 2 bathroom, big enough for a packed house. It also had a retractable roof that shaded the seats. They were able to build it only because of arches. The arches could hold just as much as a wall, but cut costs by half.
