The Architect

As the architect, your job is to research examples of Roman architecture that can still be visited today.

To keep track of your information for each site you describe, you might want to use the following graphic organizer:

Bubble Map--Write the name of your site in the middle circle, then write its attributes in the surrounding circles.

You need to find at least three examples of architecture from Ancient Rome that people can still see today to prove to the PTA members that Caesar's time is not completely gone. Use the following resources to find your favorite three Roman sites:

Roman Architecture

Ancient Roman Buildings

History of Roman Architecture

Descriptions of Roman Architecture

After conducting your research, create a travel brochure depicting at least three sites of ancient Rome that could be visited today. Your brochure should include pictures of and information about all sites you include. Want to check out some examples of brochures? Click on the links below:
