If the non flammable material on the outside did not work they could also douse the wonders in water multiple times a day so fire can not start in the first place. ]]> 2020-09-10 15:03:09 UTC https://padlet.com/mendelp/ez6ecl9xksdpcnha/wish/735376816 They could've protected the temple of Artemis by holding off the warriors that attacked the area. There wasn't a way to know that the colossus of Rhodes and he lighthouse of Alexandria would be destroyed by an earthquake, but they could've been careful with flammable materials and incendiary objects to prevent one of the wonders from burning down. s1183302_3 https://padlet.com/mendelp/ez6ecl9xksdpcnha/wish/735483491 2020-09-10 15:22:19 UTC https://padlet.com/mendelp/ez6ecl9xksdpcnha/wish/735483491 Stella https://padlet.com/mendelp/ez6ecl9xksdpcnha/wish/744472301 I think that if the monuments aren't near tectonic plates they would be safe, but just in case you can put a security system on it.

If it had been an earthquake, then they should have re-built it sturdier. For the temple of Zeus, they should have been more careful with those flammable objects like the wood base. Also, for the temple of Artimetis, they could have posted guards and tried to direct the invader's attention somewhere else. For all the things that were destroyed by earthquakes, I think they should have set up some funds and rebuilt them to be sturdier. ]]> 2020-09-15 21:06:21 UTC https://padlet.com/mendelp/ez6ecl9xksdpcnha/wish/749690555 Brendan s1167131 https://padlet.com/mendelp/ez6ecl9xksdpcnha/wish/751919979 I believe that we could have saved the colossus at Rose by making the feet stronger attached to the stone. We could've protected the Magnificent Lighthouse of Alexandria by building it in a stronger triangle. We could've saved the temple of Artemis by building a strong community and army around the temple.]]> 2020-09-16 15:06:40 UTC https://padlet.com/mendelp/ez6ecl9xksdpcnha/wish/751919979 Saahir s1156471 https://padlet.com/mendelp/ez6ecl9xksdpcnha/wish/756859816 They could have build a base around the bottoms of the monuments to keep them from getting destroyed by earth quakes.]]> 2020-09-17 19:50:48 UTC https://padlet.com/mendelp/ez6ecl9xksdpcnha/wish/756859816 Anders https://padlet.com/mendelp/ez6ecl9xksdpcnha/wish/758731513 they could've protected the monuments by repairing and rebuilding the monuments ]]> 2020-09-18 13:54:53 UTC https://padlet.com/mendelp/ez6ecl9xksdpcnha/wish/758731513 Natalie https://padlet.com/mendelp/ez6ecl9xksdpcnha/wish/759249422 Maybe they could use something that can not be easily destroyed to build the monuments.]]> 2020-09-18 15:47:11 UTC https://padlet.com/mendelp/ez6ecl9xksdpcnha/wish/759249422
