Web Quest Part 4!

What did Greek buildings look like? Look around you, many of the things you see everyday inside and outside buildings as well as many famous buildings are based on Greek Architecture.

Using a power point on the link provided answer the following questions:

What type of supports were used to hold up Greek buildings that are still used today?

How were the three different types of Greek columns similar and different? Give at least 2 examples.

Why do you think the Christian church banned nude artwork for almost 1000 years?
