Aqueducts changed the way of roman life because it made it so people could have clean, running water. Also, they used the arch. The arch was extremely helpful because it used less material, and stronger. They aqueducts were tunnels that were ever so slightly slanted. They were not that complicated, and helped the Romans a lot. It influenced us because now we have running pipelines that evolved from these ancient aqueducts.

How it changed the Romans lives: Romans were a small group, and roads helped them control an entire continent. The road allowed them to travel anywhere around
Rome in nearly 10 days.
How it influenced out lives today: Today roads are everywhere, and we couldn't live without them. Roman roads taught us the basics of road building.

The aqueducts would run water to the city for bathhouses, drinking fountains, and other wealthy people who paid for the water to come to them. The aqueducts influenced us today because they were supported by arches, and it was a great architectural design for architects nowadays as well.

Roman roads enabled quicker marching. They could; march their army anywhere in the empire in 2 days! They were made with stone, gravel, iron, and ore. They were always straight. They also made it easier to transport goods. The Roman road network in Europe alone covered over 56,000 linear miles! The Roman roads were very helpful to the Romans. They eventually adapted into the roads we have today which are made of concrete. If it wasn't for the Romans, we might of not of had the concrete roads we have today.

Aqueducts: Aqueducts were for running water to the cities of Rome.  They were often really straight.  When they ran into mountains they would tunnel through them.  They built arches around the Tunnel.  I think it affected us by teaching us how we do our pluming and sinks or tubs/showers.  I also think it taught us how we do out train system and subways.

Before the roman roads, Traveling meant going through forest and stuff (very dangerous). The Romans built the first modern highway system. This affects us today because if it wasn't for them we maybe wouldn't have a functioning road system. It affected them cuz without the roads there would not be a roman empire.

Aqueducts are where you can run water down a slope from any area to another area.  If the walls needed to be higher than 6 and a half feet off the ground. Te Romans saved materials while still adding strength. By perfecting an ancient engenering concept.

The Romans built roads out of rocks. they made it so the Roman army could get any ware ink 10 days. The had mile markers, and we also have mile markers. They made roads like ours, and they lived a long time ago. I thought this was amazing.

How it changed the Romans lives: Romans had never been in a building/space such as the pantheon. It allowed much room and might have changed the Roman's outlook on whether or not certain things were "possible".
How it influenced out lives today: Today we use domes in very important buildings, but with steel holding up the dome. The Romans, however, were intelligent enough to build a gigantic dome with little to no support.

the Romans built the first highway system. They made many kinds of different roads but primary it was to philatelist communication and the quick marching of their army's to places. They Some roads were made of gravel and iron. The roman road network in Europe alone covers over 56 thousand linear miles. Thee was mile stones that told you how close you were to the next city.

The Roman Roads where a big help to the Roman soldiers.  The roads were use to help move the Romans soldiers from place to place and it made it so they could move goods that they stole from a different town.  Stop and think if it took the Roman soldiers ten days to move from town to town then how long do you think it would take for them to travel with out roads.  They had mile markers up so when they went from town to town they would know how much longer tell the next little town and how far away they are from the other towns.  This help us get the idea of doing roads and doing mile makers ever couple of miles.

The Roman Roads were giant roads that went from empire to empire, made out of gravel or stone they would help the Romans move, but just imagine if we didn't have the Romans didn't have roads, we would have to walk on dirt! I am sorry but, no, no, no ,no, I am not doing that, I would hate that, so that means that we need the Romans for a lot of things, Pantheons, roads, water system and markets.

The Roman forum helped them because it was a place for them to visit do religious activities and it was the home of politics and the senate. it used to be a natural gathering ground for people so the Romans turned it into the forum. It was also the home of the Gladiator games before the Colosseum was built.
It helps us because I think we used some of the architecture and used the idea. I think we used the idea for the senate. I also think we used the idea of having a gathering ground like the common green in Washington D.C. I also think we used the idea of having our senate meet in a meeting house.

I think this is super cool that the Romans designed the largest unsupported concrete span in the world! This affects us because It is something that is still standing today and we can look at it and think about how amazing it is that people with not as good technology that we have today built something so risky. It affected the Romans because It was a big accomplishment and It is something they could have dances in and stuff.   It is something that they can be remembered for.

The Pantheon is a 150 feet stone sphere that holds up. They also did designs to put less weight on the top, so it won't come crashing down. The Romans did lots of architectural designs in the Pantheon. It helped them to become smarter with the construction of buildings.

It influenced us by making our modern homes better. As well as making it stronger. If the Romans didn't do architect, we probably would have solved a different way to make our buildings stay up.

The Pantheon is pretty cool, right?

First of all, what are aqueducts? Aqueducts are paths from a water source to a Roman city, gradually sloping downward extremely slowly, while the water inside speeds along. If there was a mountain blocking their path they would tunnel straight through it, and if there was a valley, up came a supporting wall, all the while maintaining the same gentle slope downwards. If the depth of the valley became too great, in came an arched wall, yet another example of amazing Roman architecture. Using arches to support things is a way of saving material while still maintaining good support. How did this change Roman life? Well, it gave them clean water, provided running water, and filled their public baths. How did this change our way of life? It taught us how to make running water and gave a good example of Roman architecture.

pantheon: a majestic temple to the roman gods. it would stay the worlds largest unsupported concrete dome for 18 centuries. Aqueducts:   Romans had  to build this on a slope.  The water went to public fountains, public baths, and one was reserved for the roman empire. We have learned out to build roads better, now we can get a round better because of the roads we have now.  Roads made it much quicker for the Romans to get places.

A road is a path that people can either drive on or in the Romans case, walk on.
It changed the Romans life because they could transport armies and goods that they stole. They could also find their way back to their country if they got lost. They were easier to walk on.
It changed our life a lot because without them, we might not even have paths or even cars! The Romans definitely changed our lives with roads and paths.

# data[].attributes.body
Roads are these paved ways that the Romans used to get to places that they needed to go and they got there fast. they also used them for transporting goods to one place from another. They also used it to go to battle or to attack someone. I think that this changed the Roman's life because they did not have to walk in the grass, they knew how far they were from the next city from the stones that they put there. I think that this inspired us to build roads for our cars to ride on. I think that this also inspired us to build sidewalks for people to walk on.

The aqueduct helped them because it held there running and drinking water. They also had perfectly angled tunnels which was impressive. They also revolutionized the arch which we use today. They used running water which was way ahead of their time.
It helps us because the arches are good for building and don't use as much material. It also could have been helpful for our drainage system which also sits on an angle.

# data[].attributes.body
I think something that is so amazing about this architect is that the roman engineers dug perfectly angle tunnels. Personally I think that would be really hare especially without the technology that we have today. This will effect us today because we can learn from this and know how they got running water.  This effected the Romans because they had running water.

Roman Roads are very important to us, as well as the people that lived in Rome. The Roman roads were as straight as possible and had milestones. The milestones were a very big help to the Romans, and changed their lives by helping Romans know how close they are to another place they are going to using the milestones. Nowadays, we don't use milestones, but we do use roads. Most roads are concrete so the ground can allow various vehicles to drive on the roads without having any troubles. However, we still use some Roman roads today! -Kira Crandall

The pantheon is the most amazing structure that was built by the Romans. The most amazing part about it is the Rotunda. It is a dome and is, supported by it's walls, it was hard to make this without it falling over from it's own weight. - Lydia

The Romans built roads that were incredibly straight. They were made out of interlocking stone, gravel, and some roads in Britain were even made out of Iron ore. I am assuming that those were more expensive than the stone roads. The Romans used their roads to transport goods, travel, and move their armies from place to place in a very short time(for them). The average trip length from city to city was about ten days. -Luke D.

You need aqueducts so that the water is able to get to the city so the people can drink their water. If they didn't have aqueducts then they wouldn't be able to get water. Aqueducts  are like rivers but instead of the sides of the river being mud it is stone.
-Keyan

# data[].attributes.body
An aqueduct was kind of like a river mad out of stone. They would use aqueducts as a way to transport water from a river to the village. Their were three mane use for the aqueduct the first was to go to the fountain and the second was to bathtubs and the last one was the water that rich Romans could use and they would have to pay for the water. I think that this had a big influence on us now because it is kind of like sewers. The sewers we have go under ground but still bring us water that we need to do stuff. All so the sewer is used for other things which I will not bring up. That is most likely of where the world got the idea to do the sewers. In the video it also said that it was really easy to build that is one reason that they had a lot of aqueducts.

With out the roads there would have been no empire. This how there army travels and how they moved goods. The way this has effect us today is people use the roads still in Europe and we converted them into highways.

An aqueduct was a slope that could transfer water to drinking fountains, bathtubs, and water that wealthy Romans could buy for themselves.
It changed their life because they could easily access water and use it for their needs. It was nice because most people did not even worry about finding water, they just had it.
It changed our life because we still use stuff like that. Without the Romans, we probably would not have canals and some other things that I do not know the name to.

How did the Pantheon, a huge 150 foot dome, change the Romans' way of life? Well, it was the gateway to larger buildings, arches, domes, and so much more! The Romans started using domes more, they found out how to make a strong yet humongous structure without it collapsing, all the while disguising some of the supports as decoration! They even lit the whole room without using candles or anything else! How did it change our way of life? it taught us ho to build incredibly huge, strong domes without them collapsing, and now we use it just like they did! Take a look at the white house, or even the Springville Library!

The Pantheon is a very amazing structure. There are no beams holding the dome up, it relies on the walls. This changed the Roman way of life forever. They can build other domes much easier because now they have experience in doing it. This influences us too. By making that dome, they taught us how to do it as well, and now us humans make and see dome shaped buildings in our daily lives. They are actually quite unique and I myself am driven to liking them. -Kira Crandall

Aqueducts are these bridges that caries water instead of people and it brings in back to the city where it is transferred to three water carriers and then the people of Rome can  by the water for their own running water. Then the rest of the water goes to the Roman emperor and the public drinking fountains. I think that this changed the Roman's life because they did not have to go get water from the rivers or the stream or lakes or anything. I think that this inspired us to build water dams because that is like a big storage of water that people can go get.

- Cy

The concept of aqueducts was well ahead of it's time. The emperor, and other wealthy members of society paid for their own running water. Other than that, the aqueducts supplied two other water sources. One was public drinking fountains. The other were the Roman baths, which were pretty much like giant swimming pools that you took baths in. Yeah, the concept is strange, but aqueducts were ingenious creations. I also think that it is incredible that the Romans dug tunnels through mountains just to get their drinking water to their city. -Luke D.

The aqueducts were very important to everybody's life in the time. They helped the fountains and other water sources. (etc.) That's how it helped the Romans in their time.

It influenced us by making us make our own modern water technology. Like water fountain, or the water we use to clean our self. What the Romans did, influenced us to make stuff with water that helps us survive today. Now, that's pretty cool.

Can you imagine how it would be like if we didn't invent any sort of water machines?

Pantheon taught the Romans how to build really good with cement.  It's sitting at about 150 feet wide and tall.  It also has a 30 foot wide hole in the ceiling.  The 6000 pound roof was pushing out on the walls and if they took the wooden frame out it would have fell so they had to figure out a way to make it so it wouldn't fall.  So they built 20 feet thick walls so it would with stand it's own weight.  The way it affected us, is the way we build and architect our houses.  They also molded the walls and showed us a model on how we could build and taught us history about the ancient Romans.

The aquecuct changed every bodys life in the city. The aquecucts was the water system in anceint rome. They moved a few inches down every hundered feet to keep he water heading in a down ward motion.
I think this changed are lifes to day because we use the same system. We get the water from the mountains and sends it down to us in the city/valley. This was very esentiale to them and us.

# data[].attributes.body
Are almost a tunnel, they will take water from the mountains and steer it to the city. They will make the aqueducts on a slant, so it will keep flowing, the aqueducts I think, helped us to create tunnels and gave us the trick for building arches. But when you think about how the aqueducts help us today, how did we know that we can get water off a mountain, we wouldn't, I know what your thinking, "But at least one person would figure it out." No! It would be like a domino effect. So that is what the roman aqueduct helped us do today.

The Parthenon dome is the most amazing structure built by the Romans. The rotunda is why it's the most amazing structure built by the Romans. The dome is 150 feet high and expands the same length across without any support of columns of buttresses. Roman concrete like concrete today used aggregate usually stones to bond the concrete together. The molecules is ta thirty foot hole in the ceiling. It is used to release some tension from the middle where the most tension is. It is also used for light.

It effects the Romans because they can learn from  their mistakes.

The Panthinans Dome was the arguably most amazing Building in all of Ancient Rome. It was the Biggest unsupported building.  The dome in the middle of it the dome was nearly 150 feet tall and wide. The dome was not supported by supports but rather by three different reasons make it stand. The first reason was that the walls around it are over 20 feet thick, Second they mixed in lighter stones with the concrete. They also had Coffers these allowed the suffice of the dome to be decorated but at the same time help the the dome not clapse. Also They had the dome thinner than the rest of the build.  The Last reason was that the center of the dome was cut out Eliminating a lot of the stress. But the one thing that nobody can figure was that why was the entree about 10 feet shorter than it should be. why they used 40 feet poles not 50 feet poles will remain a  mystery. Another mystery is who designed it.

were a man made river that went down hill. There were 3 aqueducts, 1 for the drinking fountains, 1 for the public baths, and 1 reserved for the wealthy Romans. This means they had runing water.  this means they had an idea that was way ahead of its time. We use power to pump our water, they used gravity.
