Time to reread the chapters in your text that cover this item.  You may have to get in touch with the Greek community to get specifics but I guess from the question that you are in Canada and will recognize the differences once you know about Greece.\n\nI apologize if it's the other way around.

Well, Greece is becomingf a country with most sites from classical time (~25 centuries ago). The museums are not that well organized, but the findings there are the best, dating thousands of years ago!

Cradle of modern civilization for a start.  Democracy as we known it is an Athenian concept.  Philosophy has its roots in ancient Greece.\n\nThe islands of Greece are geographically different, but here's an interesting story.  The Atlantis myth (fact?) emerged after the volcanic eruption of Santorini wiped out the Minoan civilization.  The island of Atlantis and its advanced civilization was wiped out in the process, so the story goes.

There were two main styles (or "orders") of Greek architecture, the Doric and the Ionic. These names were used by the Greeks themselves, and reflected their belief that the styles descended from the Dorian and Ionian Greeks of the Dark Ages, but this is unlikely to be true. The Doric style was used in mainland Greece and spread from there to the Greek colonies in Italy. The Doric style was more formal and austere, the Ionic more relaxed and decorative. \n\nThe more ornate Corinthian style was a later development of the Ionic. These styles are best known through the three orders of column capitals, but there are differences in most points of design and decoration between the orders. \n\nMost of the best known surviving Greek buildings, such as the Parthenon and the Temple of Hephaestus in Athens, are Doric. \n\nThe Erechtheum, next to the Parthenon, however, is Ionic. The Ionic order became dominant in the Hellenistic period, since its more decorative style suited the aesthetic of the period better than the more restrained Doric. \n\nSome of the best surviving Hellenistic buildings, such as the Library of Celsus, can be seen in Turkey, at cities such as Ephesus and Pergamum. But in the greatest of Hellenistic cities, Alexandria in Egypt, almost nothing survives. \n\nFor more information you can visit http://www.crystalinks.com/greekarchitecture.html\n\nGood luck!

It was built by King Mausolous to house the remains of himself and his sister who was also his lover and wife.  The top had a pyramid shape, the middle i believe was colonnaded in the Greek style and the base was in the form of a Mesopotamian ziggurat. It  was also covered in statues representing the the Pantheon of Mediterranean and middle eastern deities.

The exact translation in greek is: " I ethousa tou basilia". If you search for the architecture-term though then "basilika" is correct.

It refers not only to the geographical peninsula of modern Greece, but also to areas of Hellenic culture that were settled in ancient times by Greeks: Cyprus, the Aegean coast of Turkey (then known as Ionia), Sicily and southern Italy (known as Magna Graecia), and the scattered Greek settlements on the coasts of what are now Albania, Bulgaria, Egypt, Libya, southern France, southern Spain, Catalonia, Georgia, Romania, and Ukraine.\n\nThere are no fixed or universally agreed upon dates for the beginning or the end of the Ancient Greek period. In common usage it refers to all Greek history before the Roman Empire, but historians use the term more precisely. Some writers include the periods of the Greek-speaking Mycenaean civilization that collapsed about 1100 BC, though most would argue that the influential Minoan was so different from later Greek cultures that it should be classed separately.\n\nIn the modern Greek school-books, "ancient times" is a period of about 1000 years (from the catastrophe of Mycenae until the conquest of the country by the Romans) that is divided in four periods, based on styles of art as much as culture and politics. The historical line starts with Greek Dark Ages (1100–800 BC). In this period artists use geometrical schemes such as squares, circles, lines to decorate amphoras and other pottery. The archaic period (800–500 BC) represents those years when the artists made larger free-standing sculptures in stiff, hieratic poses with the dreamlike "archaic smile". In the classical years (500–323 BC) artists perfected the style that since has been taken as exemplary: "classical", such as the (Parthenon). In the Hellenistic years that followed the conquests of Alexander (323–146 BC), also known as Alexandrian, aspects of Hellenic civilization expanded to Egypt and Bactria.\n\nTraditionally, the Ancient Greek period was taken to begin with the date of the first Olympic Games in 776 BC, but many historians now extend the term back to about 1000 BC. The traditional date for the end of the Ancient Greek period is the death of Alexander the Great in 323 BC (The following period is classed Hellenistic) or the integration of Greece into the Roman Republic in 146 BC.\n\nThese dates are historians' conventions and some writers treat the Ancient Greek civilization as a continuum running until the advent of Christianity in the 3rd century.\n\nAncient Greece is considered by most historians to be the foundational culture of Western Civilization. Greek culture was a powerful influence in the Roman Empire, which carried a version of it to many parts of Europe. Ancient Greek civilization has been immensely influential on the language, politics, educational systems, philosophy, art and architecture of the modern world, particularly during the Renaissance in Western Europe and again during various neo-Classical revivals in 18th and 19th century Europe and The Americas.\n\n\nOrigins\nThe Greeks are believed to have migrated southward into the Balkan peninsula in several waves beginning in the late 3rd millennium BC, the last being the Dorian invasion. The period from 1600 BC to about 1100 BC is described in History of Mycenaean Greece known for the reign of King Agamemnon and the wars against Troy as narrated in the epics of Homer. The period from 1100 BC to the 8th century BC is a "dark age" from which no primary texts survive, and only scant archaeological evidenc
