- Roman architecture has a very distinct style. I won't explain it to you, but you can easily look it up. Aqueducts were a famous part of Roman architecture. There are also many famous buildings or pieces or architecture you can look at: Colosseum, Parthenon, etc.
- The Romans perfected the arch--Trajan's arch also the concrete dome--Pantheon and the Roman capitol style--Corinthian. The Colosseum as a stadium form began with them. Large arena, many exits, stadium seating, removeable roof, many stages including flooded area for ship fights, underground storage for men and animals, seating for thousands. Compare it to modern stadiums.
