Man has developed a form of
architecture based on
Megaliths (a big rock) from the
Greek word lithos (stone) and
Megas (big). Menhir: a huge stone standing

legends and superstition. During
this era, stones and rocks were
associated with divinity.
Stonehenge: best preserved megalithic site in Europe, a group of stones
arranged in concentric circles, with a large external circle of triliths (Greek
word meaning three stones), two internal circles built in a similar manner
and altar shape stone in the center. It is a temple where rituals were held.
The structure and the movement of the sun in the sky has a relationship
in terms of identifying the change of the seasons which helped the
primitive man on their rituals and on their agricultural practices
Egyptian Architecture
The architectural style was developed during
the pre-dynastic period 4,000BC.
Characteristics of Egyptian Architecture:
1. The structure has thick sloping walls
with few openings to obtain stability.
2. The exterior and interior walls along
with columns and piers were covered with
hieroglyphics and pictorial frescoes and
carvings painted in brilliant colors. Pyramids of Giza It is the most

CLASSICAL ART
Greek Architecture
Temples consisted of a central shrine or room
in an aisle surrounded by rows of columns.
These buildings were designed in one of three
architectural style or orders:
DORIC IONIC CORINTHIAN
The Parthenon 447-432 BC, Athens The
Greatest Classical temple, ingeniously engineered
to correct an optical illusion. The columns were
slightly contorted, swollen at the center and leaning
inward to correct what would otherwise have been
an impression of deadness
Roman Architecture
They built sturdy stone structures both for use and
to perpetuate their glory. Formed mostly under the
influence of Hellenic and Etruscan. Romans
learned how to cast bronze and bake terracotta
and got acquainted with the construction of arch
and vaults. They also invented cement from limes,
volcano ashes, water and fine stones. The Colosseum, AD 70-82, Rome
The emperors erected huge halls and arenas for
public games, baths and procession. They built
them of gigantic arches of stone, bricks and
concrete or with barrel vaults.
MEDIEVAL ART
Byzantine Architecture
It has a lot in common with the early
Christian architecture. Mosaic decoration
was perfected by the Byzantines, as was the
use of clerestory to bring light in from high
windows. Byzantine's advancement in
developing the dome created a new style in Hagia Sophia. Istanbul, 537 BC
global architecture. Hagia Sophia means “Holy Wisdom”. It narrates how
a magnificent construction transformed from being a
church, into a mosque and what is now known as
the Hagia Sophia museum. One of the biggest domes
ever created with 108 feet in diameter and because
of its grand size it can still be seen from miles away.
Romanesque Architecture
The doorways of Romanesque’s churches are often
grand sculptured portals. Wood or metal doors are
surrounded by elaborate stone sculpture arranged in
zones to fit architectural elements.
Gothic Architecture
This design included two new devices:
pointed arch which enabled builders to
construct much higher ceiling vaults and
stone vaulting borne on a network of stone
ribs supported by piers and clustered pillars.
