I only know 3 of the ancient wonders of the world, does anyone know the other 4?

[sabo]

I know of the Pyramids, the Hanging gardens of Babylon, and the colossus of Rhodes.

Does anyone know what the other 4 are?

 

[CrazyScientist]

In civ? or in real life? I'm not sure they're all the same.

In civ2 the other 4 are.....

The Delphic Oracle, The Great Wall of China, The Great Library of Alexandria, and The Lighthouse of Pharos.

 

[Becka]

It's something like the Statue of Zeus, er, somewhere. Can't remember where.

 

[acjvanv]

Statue of Zeus in Olympia, the Temple of Artemis in Efeze, the Mausoleum of Halicarnassus, the Pharos of Alexandrie

 

[Yoda Power]

I think there is two treads in the history forum about this.

 

[Lucky]

Here, if you want the full list again:

The Great Pyramid of Giza
The Hanging Gardens of Babylon
The Statue of Zeus at Olympia
The Temple of Artemis at Ephesus
The Mausoleum at Halicarnassus
The Colussus of Rhodes
The Lighthouse of Alexandria

I believe that all have been destroyed over the years except of the Great Pyramid.

 

[Kublai-Khan]

There are 2 lists, the oldest one is
The Great Pyramid of Giza
The Hanging Gardens of Babylon
The Statue of Zeus at Olympia
The Temple of Artemis at Ephesus
The Mausoleum at Halicarnassus
The Colussus of Rhodes
The walls of babylon,

and the newest one replaces the walls of babylon with the lighthouse of Alexandria.

... although there's no solid proof that the Colussus of Rhodes really existed... or if it did exist, would it have its legs together or one at either side of the bay?...

I believe the bronze itself was cut up and sold as scrap metal to a Jewish merchant in Syria...

 

[Perfection]

Some scholars believe that the Sphinx and not the pyramids were on the origional list, I remian skeptical

 

[JtheJackal]

If all the others existed I'm sure the Colossus did too

You're right, unless the Civlopedia is wrong. They say the Muslims sold it off as scrap metal in 650 AD.

I wonder why they don't have every ancient wonder as a wonder in Civ3.

 

[amadeus]

I said they sold it TO a Jewish merchant, not from one. I'm pretty certain that the sellers were Muslims...

WHAT??? You say that the Civilopedia can be wrong? Blasphemy!!!

 

[Aphex_Twin]

Kublay Khan... I think Lucky's list is the right. There is no wonder of the antiquity called "The wall of Babylon".

What's up with the Great Wall of China? The Great Wonders of the Antiquity are seven great edifices built in the Mediterranean area.
