Art and Architecture



Art in ancient Greece didn't start until 340 B.C.E the Greeks invented the Greek Buddist Art style-a combination of Greek art and Buddist art. Greek architecture started with columns in 3450 B.C.E. They invented ornaments around the house in 50 B.C.E. but statues came in 330 B.C.E. The Greeks invented temples in 3200 B.C.E. Each temple had statues and paintings of a specific God that the Greeks worshipped.
Most art was a statue, painting, or carving of a famous person such as a writer or hero.
