Abstract

The Pantheon is the only Roman building that has come down to our times virtually as it was in Roman times. It is a fine example of Roman architectural concepts at the highest point of their evolution and embodies the use of exceptional daring architectural solutions, in terms of both its immobility and the way it was built. The temple, built by Agrippa - Augustus' son-in-law, who died in 12 B.C., was settled in the centre of the Campo Marzio. Under the rule of Emperor Hadrian (117-138 A.D.) it was completely rebuilt.
