UCLA ART History & Secrets of the Parthenon Video Analysis Discussion

I need help with a History question. All explanations and answers will be used to help me learn.

(Required) Watch the Secrets of the Parthenon video (55 min)

Take notes and use the Transcript for Parthenon Video(File is below ) for reference

Secrets of the Parthenon (Links to an external site.) from Providence Pictures (Links to an external site.) on Vimeo (Links to an external site.).
For 25 centuries the Parthenon has been shot at, set on fire, rocked by earthquakes, looted for its sculptures, and disfigured by catastrophic renovations. To save it from collapse, the modern restoration team must uncover the secrets of how the ancient Greeks built this icon of western civilization in less than nine years without anything resembling an architectural plan.

3. Complete the following steps:

• Number your answers to correspond with the question.

• Find every answer in the video, “Secrets of the Parthenon” or the transcript of the video. Use of any other source besides the video (i.e. wikipedia etc.) is not permitted and will earn a zero for the assignment. Please take this seriously.
