5 Many city-states on the Italian peninsula From BC, among all cities in Italy, Rome became the most powerful BC, Rome conquered all of Italy and established one of the strongest empires in history Depended on conquest by land to extend their power

6 2 periods: Etuscan or Etruscan (750 BC to 146 BC) Roman (146 BC to 365 AD) Developed constitutional republic Farmers & soldiers, concerned with efficiency and justice For 500 years Rome was ruled by elected leaders called consuls In 27 BC, Augustus crowned himself Emperor with total power Succession of military dictatorships of which Julius Caesar s was most famous Empire reached its greatest size in 114 AD under Emperor Trajan km wide and 60 million inhabitants Latin was the official language Applied roman system of laws Was the intermediary in spreading art and civilization in Europe, West Asia and North Africa

7 CONSTRUCTION SYSTEM Adopted column system of Greeks Arch and vault system started by Etruscans - combined use of column, beam and arch Were able to cover large spaces without the aid of intermediate support (Arches, Vaults, and Domes) used effectively by Romans

8 its semicircular form is often called a Roman arch A typical Roman arch and an arch under construction with centering. 1 Springing 2 Voussoir 3 Keystone 4 Centering Ancient Roman architects and builders made extensive use of various forms of arch in the construction of doors, windows, and interior spaces. The typical arch was semicircular, and its construction required the use of a temporary wooden support structure known as centering.

9 Pont du Gard, Nîmes, France, c B.C.E. This Roman aqueduct bridge uses three tiers of arches to support a large water channel (at the top),

10 Materials Tile covered concrete quickly become primary (main) building material, and more daring buildings soon followed, with great pillars supporting broad arches and domes rather than dense lines of columns suspending flat architraves. In smaller-scale architecture, concrete's strength freed the floor plan from rectangular cells to a more free-flowing environment.

11 Elements of space making The Roman use of the arch and their improvements in the use of concrete and bricks along with the use of features such as domes, vaults, and arches facilitated liberation of shapes from the dictates of the traditional materials of stone.

12 Pantheon, in Rome Rome s temple to all gods. The Pantheon is not only one of the best-preserved buildings of antiquity but also one of the most influential designs in architectural history. It reveals the full potential of concrete, both as a building material and as a means for shaping architectural space. On the plaza there is an entrance portico with eight Corinthian columns.

13 Plan and section of the Pantheon, Rome, c C.E. 1 Rotunda 2 Niche 3 Portico 4 Oculus ( eye ) The circle that forms the basis of the plan also controls the section. The dome is a half sphere, while the walls below form a cylinder with a height just half its diameter. The circle drawn on the section thus fits the interior of the dome and touches the floor at its center. 142 feet in diameter = 43 meters

14 Oculus ( eye ) is the only source of internal lighting. 30 feet diameter = 9 m.

15 Below the dome, much of the original marble veneer of the walls, niches, and floor has survived Visitors to the Pantheon can get a sense, as almost nowhere else, of how magnificent the interiors of Roman concrete buildings could be. But despite the luxurious skin of the Pantheon s interior, the sense experienced on first entering the structure is not the weight of the enclosing walls but the space they enclose. Roman architects were the first to conceive of architecture in terms of units of space.

16 The Pantheon s interior is a single unified, self-sufficient whole, uninterrupted by supporting solids. It encloses visitors without imprisoning them, opening through the oculus to the drifting clouds, the blue sky, the sun, and the gods. In this space, the architect used light not merely to illuminate the darkness but to create drama and emphasize the interior shape s symbolism.

17 On a sunny day, the light that passes through the oculus forms a circular beam, a disk of light that moves across the coffered dome in the course of the day as the sun moves across the sky itself escaping from the noise and torrid heat of a Roman summer day into the Pantheon s cool, calm, and mystical immensity (enormousness) is an experience almost impossible to describe verbally.

18

20 The dramatic effect of the beams of sun light which stream in through the oculus to be reflected from the polished marble floor and the special acoustical quality generated in a round room make the Pantheon interior one of the most remarkable spaces surviving from ancient times.
