      @@EPUEPUEPUEPU are you saying egyptian architecture and greek archietcture are the same?.. im pretty sure this video is supposed to only focus on the greek. but i would also like to see a seperate video on egypt. I dont think the narrator is saying all modern architecture comes from greece, but wouldnt you say some buildings are inspired by those trends?

      @@EPUEPUEPUEPU yes, greek evolved from egyptian but that doesnt mean they are the same. i think most people can tell the difference between egyptian and greek right? which is why she has made a seperate video about greece, because they arent the same. Just because she is currently talking about greece doesnt mean shes saying it didnt get influence from egypt? im pretty sure that is common knowledge. it would a massive video if she had to start out in egypt and explain all architecture from there, right?

      Ancient Greek Architecture art was created to implement new ideas and needs with an aesthetic that is still liked today. . The creation of a column is innate in man even from the Paleolithic era. And of course in no other ancient civilization did there exist Theaters, Stoes and Gymnasiums.

    Very good and informative Kelly! Well done thought i think you forgot the Minoic which is somehow like the tuscan or doric in an updside down style, besides that i don`t believe the Romans named these columns cause each column has to do about tribes Ionic (Athenian tribe) Doric (Spartan tribe) etc etc because Romans was missing many from the original Greek architecture and this can be seen in the statues replicas. The ancient Greek statues never need something for the statues to stand and hold on to so they dont fall while the Roman replicas always has to put some kind of helping stand so the statue stay always up and never fall over ^.^ That is also the the most accurate way to understand if a statue is an original Greek one or a Roman copy of the original! Cheers!

    Zacharias Papantoniou (Greek: Ζαχαρίας Παπαντωνίου) was a Greek writer. He was born in Karpenissi of Evrytania in February 1877 and died in Athens in 1940. He spent the first years of his life in Granitsa, where his father was a teacher. Apart from a writer, he was also a journalist. Many of the works of Zacharias Papantoniou, unfortunately, are censored because they tell the truth on Greek history. In that censored group is also the book, ''The King Otto''. Below we state a fragment from this book: ''The young Prince for first time come in Athens on January 25, 1833, he hardly heard anyone speak in Greek and so he asked: "Where are the Greeks in Athens?" His court looked at each other and answered: "There are no Greeks, but do not be troubled because this Albanian population will always be faithful to your monarchy."
    The "Greek" War of Independence was actually a pure Albanian revolution. " Jakob Philipp Fallmerayer (1790-1861) A well-known German 🇩🇪 traveller, journalist, politician, and historian.

      There have never been Albanians in Athens, and there have never been Greeks faithful to monarchy.

    An excellent documentary on daily motion web site, "PBS - NOVA Secrets of The Parthenon (2008)") shows the puzzles that conservators faced when restoring the partheonon and the ancient stoneworking technology they used. Some tools had been lost to stone masons but scientists reverse engineered them from the markings made in the stone and recreated the long lost tools.

    Amphitheaters are Roman buildings, built for performances such as gladiator fights, the most famous example being the Colosseum. The structures used for theatrical performances in ancient Greece are "theatre".

      @@WorldHistoryEncyclopedia I think “amphitheatre” is still incorrect here? It comes from “amphitheatron”, with “amphi” meaning on both sides or around. I.e. a theatre with seating on both sides or around the entire theatre

    Some basic mistakes:
    1. All of the images of the classical order that you showed are Roman. The Greek Doric in particular does not have a base and looks very different from a Roman Doric.
    2. It was not the Romans who gave the columns their names. The Doric and Ionic (or Ionian) orders are widely known under these names way before the Roman conquest of Greece. Herodotus (mid-400s BC) discusses the Doric and Ionic orders by these names.
    3. The Corinthian was invented in (surprise) Corinth, not Athens. Which is why it's not called the Athenian. There are Corinthian capitals elsewhere before any are found in Athens.
    4. Phidias was a sculptor, not an architect. The architect of the Parthenon was Ictinus (or Callicrates - it's debated. usually both are stated as co-architects)
    5. Telling tales "of history" was not a common thing in ancient Greek temples. The Parthenon's frieze on the external wall shows the Panathenaic Procession, but this was a radical move that some Athenians of the time considered sacrilegious.
    6. The amphitheatre is a Roman invention, where seats completely surround the stage from all sides (amphi - 'from both sides'). Amphitheatres are oval. Greeks only had theatres of the semi-circular, non-amphi variety.
    7. Greeks did have roofed performance spaces, but they are called Odea (single: Odeon).
