The "Greek" and "Roman" Parthenon.

Abstract: (3 pp) The Parthenon, crowing the hill of the Acropolis in Athens, is the greatest symbol of Classical Greece. No other architectural monument of this period has been as admired or so closely studied for it represents the ultimate sophistication reached by the architects and sculptors of that, or any time. It is a building of combined Greek and Roman influences. Built between 447 and 438 BC, it remained substantially intact for more than 2000 years, suffering its greatest damage in the last 300 years.
