| Abstrakt: |
Development of Palmyra’s architecture is an interesting example of the changes which took place in construction techniques and their application. These changes resulted from an individual approach to ancient Greek construction technique introduced at the beginning of the Ist century AD, employed in the construction of the great Temple of Bel. A complex analysis of the ancient buildings explains factors that influenced a building technology adopted for erection high tower tombs, walls and columns in a fast and easy way, as well as describes a specific approach to construction of arches and vaults in Palmyra. |
