The document discusses different architectural styles from ancient civilizations. It describes Egyptian architecture as having religiously-inspired tombs and temples. Mesopotamian architecture is exemplified by ziggurats, which are layered platforms accessed by ramps. Greek architecture is most prominently seen in temples and uses three classical styles - Doric, Ionic, and Corinthian - which differ in their column and capital designs. Roman architecture adopted and advanced arch and vault construction and combined columns, beams and arches.

6. Egyptian Architecture (4000-
2280 B.C.E)
• The religious rites of the Egyptians were
traditional, virtually unchangeable, and
mysterious, and these traits are
reproduced in the architecture, both of
tombs and temples.

9. MESOPOTAMIAN ARCHITECTURE
(6th
Century B.C.E)
• Mesopotamian Architecture is
evident in its palaces and temples.
Example of this are the Ziggurat
Looks like a tower
Built at successive levels
With ramps leading from one
platform to the next.
Modern building with setbacks

11. GREEK ARCHITECTURE
(1100-100 B.C.E )
As was the Egyptian temple, Greek
Architecture in its most characteristic
form is found on the temple, a low
building of post-and-lintel construction.

12. 3 types of Greek Architecture
1. Doric
2. Ionic
3. Corinthian

13. Doric
 It is seen in the temple of Apollo at old
Corinth and in the Parthenon
One of the greatest temple ever built.
Doric column has no base
 the bottom of the column rests on the top
step.
The Doric order identified by the low-
cushion-like shape of part of its capital
The frieze is divided into triglyphs and
metopes.

14. Image of Doric

15. Ionic
 Column is taller and more slender than the
Doric.
 It has a base and ,the capital is ornamented
with scrolls in each side.
 The frieze is continuous.
 The architecture below the frieze is
stepped
 Divided horizontally into three parts
 Features can be trace their ancestry to
Asia Minor.

16. Ionic

17. Corinthian
 with base and shaft resembling than Ionic
 Much more slender
 distinctive feature is the capital
The Corinthian entablateur is not
distinguishable from the ionic in Greek
Architecture. They share same entablateur.

20. ROMAN ARCHITECTURE
(1000 B.C.E-C.E.,4000 )
• Developed also the arch and vault
from the beginnings made by the
Etruscans.
• The keynote of the Roman style in
the earliest stages are the
combined use of column, beam
and the arch.
