Public Works of Ancient Greece BY Ethan Richards
This is the Parthenon. It is used for viewing from only the outside because it was for the Gods of Greece.
The cella was unusually large to accommodate the oversized statue of Athena, confining the front and back porch to a much smaller than usual size. A line of six Doric columns supported the front and back porch, while a colonnade of 23 smaller Doric columns surrounded the statue in a two-storied arrangement. The placement of columns behind the statue was an unusual development since in previous Doric temples they only appeared on the flanks, but the greater width and length of the Parthenon allowed for a dramatic backdrop of double decked columns instead of a wall.
Public works was major in Ancient Greece. It is because they public need entertainment or for special places for praying.
This is a walk way for the public. As you can see they built columns all they way along to make it a more of a senior view.
These were just a couple of the famous publis works. The other public works is art work and there colosseums or there statues.
Athens Gardens
These are Ancient Greece gardens. The gardens were for the public to relax and also the ruler at the time to impress any other rulers from across the lands.y
