The ancient Greeks and Romans perfected architecture, laying the foundation for classical architecture and making it a point of reference for centuries to come, indicates Jordan Workman. During this stage the stylized arches and columns were developed, limestone and marble were worked, irrigation systems and aqueducts, sanitized cities and concrete originated, explains Jordan Workman.
Architecture is a discipline intrinsically linked to history and like any other form of historical knowledge, it is subject to the limitations and strengths of science. There are different perspectives in relation to its study, the periods studied run parallel to those of the history of art, says Jordan Workman.
