The Seven Wonders of the Ancient World
There is no better way to get students' attention on the subject of ancient civilizations than showing them the Seven Wonders. The Romans saw them as the crowning achievements of their predecessors in Egypt, Mesopotamia, and Greece: the Great Pyramid of Cheops, the Hanging Gardens of Babylon, the Statue of Zeus at Olympia, the Temple of Artemis, the Mausoleum at Halicarnassus, the Colossus of Rhodes, and the Lighthouse of Alexandria. Through stunning on-location and reconstruction visuals and an evocative narration, we learn how and why they were built, and how they dazzled the Ancients.
