I think the discovery of 'Hydraulic' cement using pulverised volcanic ash from Pozzuoli made a huge step forward in architecture.
Concrete that sets under water made it possible to build viaducts and aquaducts across river beds etc. The construction of artificial harbour walls made it possible to dramatically increase trading between nations.
In Rome the building of the dome of the Pantheon is a masterpiece in the use of early concrete and still stands more than 2000 years after it's construction.
