Seven Wonders of the Ancient World

No engineering blog would be complete without reference to the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World.

I asked my wife the other day what the oldest wonder was and she stumbled. A lot of people don’t realise that the oldest is the one that still stands today: the Great pyramid of Giza. Talk about a design life!

See the simple visual timeline for when each wonder existed.
