The Seven Wonders of the World

• The final list of the Seven Wonders was compiled
  during the Middle Ages.
• The list comprised the seven most impressive
  monuments of the Ancient World, some of which
  barely survived to the Middle Ages.
• For their builders, the Seven Wonders were a
  celebration of religion, art, and science.
• For us, they reflect the ability of humans to
  change the surrounding landscape by building
  massive yet beautiful structures.
