In this book, you will learn the answers to the following questions:
•How many of the wonders are still around today?
•Were all of these wonders actually real, or are they more mythical in nature?
•Why were these wonders built in the first place?
•What happened to them? Did they fall apart over time, or did something catastrophic happen?
•How big do historians think these wonders were?
•And so much more!
The youngest of the wonders also turned out to be the most practical and one of the longest-lived, surviving into the late middle ages. It was a lighthouse built on the northern coast of egypt in africa, at the greek city founded in alexander's name. It was the pharos, the great lighthouse of alexandria. Among antiquity’s wonders, the lighthouse of alexandria was fairly unique both in terms of its purpose and its secular nature. While pyramids and statues served religious purposes in egypt and greece, and others were impressive works of art, the origins of the lighthouse were not even as a lighthouse at all.
