There are distinct parallels between the Age of Pericles and PAX Romana as both ages formed during great periods of conflict, yet continued to advance their civilizations in the most dramatic fashion through the arts and economics. While Pericles ushered in an age of cultural growth with plays, architecture, and Philosophy, the PAX Romana age under Augustus expanded the Roman Empire and capitalized on merchant trade routes. The Age of Pericles is more impressive than PAX Romana due to its enduring influence on the world centuries later. The period known as PAX Romana started after Emperor Augustus quelled civil war and unified the government placing him as the single ruler, however he was not as flamboyant as previous rulers, as he led from behind the scenes.
Hatshepsut was an effective religious leader. She credited her place to Amun through her Heavenly Birth. She followed the god’s command by acquiring an expedition to Punt and gave gifts to the gods; she gave praise to Amun for her military victories and triumphs. Hatshepsut also kept religious festivals and contributed numerous respect and influence to the Amun priesthood. Hatshepsut made sure Egypt was safe after her death.

Hatshepsut’s reign as pharaoh strongly emphasised her close relationship and devotion to the god Amun. According to Lawless, Hatshepsut did more than any other Pharaoh to raise the status of Amun beyond all other gods. She achieved this by emphasising her filial relationship with the god, most evident in the divine birth scene in her mortuary temple at Deir El Bahri and through the Oracle, which was later inscribed on the walls of the Red Chapel at Karnak. These pieces of evidence are vital in explaining Hatshepsut’s devotion to Amun. However, the relationship between Hatshepsut and Amun was a reciprocal arrangement as through the glorification of her father she promoted the priesthood and rewarded them for their support towards her legitimacy which led to their growth in wealth and political power during her reign.

Two very important historic buildings from the Greek and Roman civilizations, namely the Parthenon and the Pantheon respectively, are worthy of academic exploration. An analysis of their function and style will help to put their design and features into perspective, and create a better appreciation for their emulation in Western civilization. These buildings possess very unique individual characteristic designs, which bears testimony to the societies from which they originate. However, they are also a resourceful database of knowledge in terms of their symbolism, rich heritage of their era and application to the present civilization.

What is a sacred space? To me a sacred space is somewhere I can get in touch with nature and be able to experience the circle of life firsthand or the synergistic role I have with the earth, its plants and animals. A sacred place is where I can be myself without the fear of worrying about what others think or say about me, but at the same time being able to respect the space of others. Another important feature of a sacred space is to help me feel free and to make me feel in touch with not just myself, but my surroundings as well.
