Buildings

The last emperors who undertook major construction projects in the Roman Forum were Maxentius and Constantine. Maxentius begun to build the Basilica of Maxentius in 308 and Constantine completed it in 312.

The emperor Trajan, who was around much earlier (he reigned 98-117), did not undertake any major construction projects in the Roman Forum. He built a new forum, the Forum of Trajan.

The sources are vague about the location of the original pantheon with most of the ancient sources saying it was on the Campus Martius. The exact location was not considered necessary as at the time of the ancient writers, everyone knew where the Field of Mars was or had been. Modern sources claim that the pantheon that is standing today was built in the same spot where Agrippa's original had stood.

There was no official US capitol building in 1776 for reasons that should be obvious.

Several other countries in America may have had such places. If you are referring to one of those countries you need to specify which particular one you mean

Yes it was burned by the British in the war of 1812. The story goes that Dolly Madison was running out the door with the painting of Washington as the British troops entered. That is the reason why the house it white. The paint was used to paint over the burn marks and when they did some work on the White House they found some of the burn marks from 1812.

I'm not too sure what the other ones are but I know he definitely built the French Bank on 18th January 1800.

== == The Pharos of Alexandria was built between 285 and 247 BCE and lasted until 1323 AD/ CE when was severely damaged by two earthquakes [the first at 1303 AD/ CE]. It was the longest lastng monument of the ancient seven wonders except the Pyramids.

Medieval towns tended to grow around areas where people could easily meet, such as crossroads or rivers. Towns needed more water than villages, so a nearby water supply was vital. Rivers would provide the water used for washing and drinking and they were used for the disposal of sewage (if it had not been simply thrown into the streets).

Village people came to towns to trade therefore those who were in charge of a town had to do what was needed to ensure that their town was safe. Many towns had large fences built around them and the gates of these fences were locked at night to keep out undesirables. Cities such as York and Canterbury had city walls that served the same purpose - but a town would not have had enough wealth to build such an expensive protection.

A successful town attracted many merchants to it. Many towns were owned by a lord and it was in his interest to ensure that his town was popular with merchants as they paid tax. The more merchants in a town, the more tax a lord could collect. Taxes were collected by a sheriff. As many people could not read or write, the system was open to abuse and corruption. This is why many people in towns wanted to get a charter.

A charter gave people in a town certain rights that were clearly stated in the charter that town had. Many charters gave towns the right to collect their own taxes thus removing corrupt sheriffs from doing so. It was also common for a town to ask for its own law court so that legal problems could be settled quickly.

Towns were dirty places to live in. There was no sewage system as we would know it today. Many people threw toilet waste into the street along with other rubbish. Rats were very common in towns and cities and lead to the Black Death of 1348 to 1349. Towns might use pigs to eat what rubbish there was. Water was far from clean as a local river would have been polluted with toilet waste thrown into it from villages both upstream and downstream. Therefore, as people would have used this as a source of water (they had no other choice) and because people knew little about health and hygiene, disease was common. Life expectancy could be short. Life for a poor person in a town or city was described as "nasty, brutal and short".

As homes were made of wood, fire was another danger in a town or city. Walking in a town at night could also be dangerous. Though towns had a curfew (a time when everyone had to be in their homes) no town had a police force to deal with those who broke the law. No town had street lights - the only choice was candles but in a wooden city or town, these 'street lights' could prove disastrous.

Building in a Medieval town was expensive as land cost a great deal. That is why many Medieval houses that exist today appear odd in that they have a small ground floor, a larger second floor and an even larger top floor as builders built up and out. This kept the cost down.

The Biltmore was built by George Washington Vanderbilt at the end of the 19th century. It is one of the grandest American residences ever built and has 225 rooms. It is a French renaissance chateau, dominating a 125,000-acre estate in the Appalachian Mountains of North Carolina.

Also my great-great grandfather Samuel Barnes was worker who helped build the biltmore house. Samara Abdul-Allah's Great great grandfather.

Impossible to tell. People have been looking for the safest/most comfortable/practical shelter as long as there has been people.

There's no clear line stating when a hut or other simpler construction finally becomes good enough to be called a house.
