= = =4. Summary= While researching Roman Architecture i have learned many things. Some of the things I have learned was about Arches and collumns, domestic architecture, temples, and theaters. While i was looking in the arches and collumns category i learned that some people said that arches and collumns ariginated by the romans, but that is not true it was just that the romans applied the arches and collumns in a lot of their work. The collumns made it universal that a lot of civil buildings had collumns and arches. The dome of panthon is said to be the "the new type of architecture" with a lot of arches and collumns. When i was learning about domestic architecture, it is said that it nauraly claims the attenion of people. Also when i was reading, i read that back then in the homes there are rooms where they created for god/spirits for the families to worship. Later in my reading i read about Roman temples. In my reading it said the panthon is the only temple that is left which is worthy. The tempe capiloline jupiter has no evidence left like rocks or anything. Temples back then were wealthy places. Also i read that the temple of capitoline jupiter was a work of the turiarus. Last i read about theaters, back then there was a small amount of theaters in rome. In rome, the theaters that were there were not concidered fine. The theaters were thought of modles of the romans. In the theater many of the people worked for the money not just for the fun of it. Now that you have read my summary you are very well informed about the Roman Architecture.
