You should look at this mod from a historic point of view. Of course, CiV isn't a real historical game; it's a simple simulation. Nonetheless, in my opinion, the historical timeline should be respected. The Oracle and The Hanging Gardens are ancient wonders. Conversely, The Great Library and the three DLC wonders (Temple of Artemis, Statue of Zeus and Mausoleum of Halicarnassus) belong to the classic era.

Accordingly this mod:

Adds "Wonders of the Ancient World" DLC wonders:
Temple of Artemis
Statue of Zeus
Mausoleum of Halicarnassus

Adds 11 new wonders:
The Sphinx
Knossos Palace
Abu Simbel
Tower of Babel
Solomon's Temple
Isthar Gate
The Parthenon
Platonic Academy
Pergamon Altar
Flavian Amphitheatre
Pont du Gard

Sorts G&K\DLC ancient and classic wonders on techtree following their historical timeline

Really nice to bring all these ancient wonders in one place; great to see wonders such as Pont du Gard included - important wonder, but oft forgotten at the side of the more iconic wonders.
 
So wait, does this re-create the Wonders from the Wonders DLC identically except for the art?

Not completely. Firaxis DLC is a scenario pack, i.e it contains more stuff than three wonders.
AWT mod adds Temple of Artemis, Statue of Zeus and Mausoleum of Halicarnassus using alternate arts and without 3D models. Wonder effects are identical to DLC ones. Changes are cost, tech and others as reported in the table above.
