history of architecture spans millennia and encompasses a multitude of civilizations and
cultures. Every era has added to the rich tapestry of architectural heritage that affects our built
environment today, from the modest beginnings of early shelters made by prehistoric peoples to
the enormous feats of ancient empires. Through an examination of the unique characteristics
and noteworthy instances from significant eras including the Early Men, Egyptian, Greek,
Roman, Early Christian, and Byzantine periods, we can acquire a deeper understanding of the
immense influence that architecture has on human civilization and culture.
EARLY MEN ERA
The pyramids, which were built during the Fourth Dynasty, are evidence of the power
and religion of the Pharaonic Empire. They were built as monuments as a way to keep
their names alive. The scale and straightforward design demonstrate the high caliber of
large-scale Egyptian design and engineering. The Great Pyramid of Giza is the oldest
in the Giza complex, the largest pyramid globally, and the only remaining structure
among the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. It was most likely finished around
2580 BC.

inventiveness, tenacity, and inventiveness. Every epoch has left an enduring imprint
on the built environment, influencing how we view and engage with the world
around us, from the crude shelters of early civilizations to the breathtaking
monuments of ancient empires and the sublime grandeur of medieval cathedrals.
