The need to maximize a limited access to water for both human consumption and agriculture might explain the fact that both Peruvian cultures - both agricultural civilizations - used underground aqueducts to collect and transport water to reservoirs that were located nearby. For instance, the rivers that supplied the Nazca people did not carry any water during part of the year, so they conceived an innovative system that allowed them to collect the water from the rain that filtered through the ground into underground galleries, which allowed them to prevent the loss of that water - they inhabited a desert area, after all. The Chavin civilization also inhabited arid and extensive coastal areas that required ample and complex irrigation systems, hence the importance of saving and transporting water.

Use the quotation to answer the question. “Greece has conquered her rude conqueror.” What did the poet Horace mean by these word
damaskus [11]
I believe Horace means that Greece won freedom from the Romans and somewhat ruled them. Like you said, Greek architecture, art and science merged with Roman knowledge. Furthermore, Greeks controlled the Roman Senate.
I think you're trying to see the "fight" from both sides. You can't. For this assignment, you have to write from the perspective of Greeks being victorious.
