Greco - Roman culture- The mixing of elements of Greek, Hellenistic and Roman culture produced a new culture

Pompeii-Roman town destroyed by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius

Virgil-wrote Aeneid-legend of Aeneus; poet

Tacitus-historian-presented facts accurately, wrote about good and bad of imperial Rome

aqueduct-bring water into cities and towns

2) I think the law would be the best accomplishment because it set up a lot of governments today by giving people the same set of laws as everyone else and giving the people the say. 

3) Greco-Roman culture is the mixing of elements of Greek, Hellenistic, and Roman
cultures.


4) The Greeks were known for beautiful but idealized sculpture; Roman sculptors created more realistic works.

5) It forms the basis for Western languages such as French, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, and Romanian; more than half of English words have a basis in Latin.
