How Did Roman Architecture Influence Greek Architecture

Preface

I am always fascinated by the ancient times period since I was little. The ancient time periods have so many mysteries things that I would like to study and get to know especially the Ancient Egypt.
The architecture of Ancient Egypt is one of the most influential civilizations throughout history, which included their pyramids, temples, tombs and palaces. Besides of their architecture, the culture of the Egyptian is also very fascinating. Their religion affects how the buildings are designed and built. Culture becomes the main reason of how the buildings look like even after their period. The Greek culture is somehow influenced by the ancient Egyptian, it then influences the Romans architecture as well as the classical architecture.
The world we live in today, our architecture, astronomy, technology, medicine, athletics, theatre, mathematics and drama began with the Greeks. Perfection and freedom were what they pursue in their entire life, and it helped the leading to the world’s first democracy. Although the Greeks influenced the modern world a lot, it still had its dark side.

The society back then was full of cruelty and injustice. It was a mess. Slavery was part of their normal life. People who killed their own children was defended with nonsense reason. Homosexual was obviously make sense in their culture. People saw the violence but no one would speak out. Honesty in their society was swallowed out. It was a fully barbaric world. Despite how unrestrained they were, the ancient Greeks were deeply religious people. They worshipped the gods of Olympus, sublimated those gods in superb sculptures and idealised the body of gods that in human form. As the gods were represented in large statues, it was necessary to provide a building in which each of these could be housed. This led to the development of
Greek architecture provided the foundation for the classical architectural orders and greatly influenced the roman’s architecture. It is well known for their temples and orders. There are five main architectural orders in classical architecture including the Doric order, the Ionic Order, Corinthian Order, Tuscan Order and Composite Order which named by the Romans. The Greece created the first three orders.

The Doric was the earliest and simplest of the orders. It was mostly fluted sometimes smooth-surfaced, it had no base and stood directly straight into the platform which the temple or other buildings stood. It is designed to represent the bulk and vigour of a muscular full grown man^(Chambers, A Treatise on the Decorative Part of Civil Architecture(Joseph Gwilt ed, 1825:pp 159–61)). There is also another view suggests that the Doric order was inspired by Egypt’s all-stone temples^(Hermes House, The complete illustrated encyclopaedia of Ancient Greece (Nigel Rodgers, pp 299)). Its capital was in a simple circler form under a square cushion. There were 20 parallel concave grooves fluted on the vertical
