Answer:
Because more than just a building, an architectural structure is a human expression. So, it must reflect the conceptions, not only of the time but the author as well. When an architect is projecting a building, he must think about how the audience would look at it, and the feelings they will have. A good example is the Gothic cathedrals.
Explanation:
Well, now let's see.
The architects who project for example the Notre Dame Cathedral were influenced by the art of their time (the Gothic, in this case). So, the structure they were rising should contain elements of this style, such as complex decoration, stained glass, statues ornamenting the entrance, the idea of reach the skies represented by the building's height, the flying buttress on the structures, and several other elements. And when people look at the final building, they will feel fear, respect, moderation and many other feelings. But these feelings were possible, ONLY because the architect thought about what he would put on the structure.
Answer:
The Ancient Near East is the name given to early civilizations within a region roughly corresponding to the modern Middle East: Mesopotamia (modern Iraq and Syria), Persia (modern Iran), Anatolia (modern Turkey), the Levant (modern Syria, Lebanon, Israel, Palestine, and Jordan), and Ancient Egypt, from the rise of Sumer in the 4th millennium BCE until the region's conquest by Alexander the Great in the 4th century BCE, or covering both the Bronze Age and the Iron Age in the region. As such, it is a term widely used in the fields of Near Eastern archaeology, ancient history and Egyptology. Some would exclude Egypt from the ancient Near East as a geographically and culturally distinct area. However, because of Egypt's intimate involvement with the region, especially from the 2nd millennium BCE, this exclusion is rare.
The ancient Near East is considered the cradle of civilization. It was the first to practice intensive year-round agriculture; it gave the rest of the world the first writing system, invented the potter's wheel and then the vehicular- and mill wheel, created the first centralized governments, law codes and empires, as well as introducing social stratification, slavery and organized warfare, and it laid the foundation for the fields of astronomy and mathematics.
