Correct! mixing of large and small stone blocks The arches of the Colosseum are made out of cement, a remarkably strong building material the Romans made with what they had at hand: volcanic ash and volcanic rock. Modern scientists believe that the use of this ash is the reason that structures like the Colosseum still stand today. Roman underwater structures proved to be even sturdier. Seawater reacting with the volcanic ash created crystals that filled in the cracks in the concrete. To make a concrete this durable, modern builders must reinforce it with steel. So today, scientists study Roman concrete, hoping to match the success of the ancient master builders. 0 / 1 pts Question 12 What "major legacy" of the Roman Empire did Professor Bagchi-Sen highlight?

The Roman Forum, for centuries, had been the nerve center of ancient Rome's public life. It is believed that people first gathered here around 500 BC, initially for day-to-day trading at a marketplace All of the other answers are correct, and hence this is the best answer. Correct! Correct! Over the few centuries, as more activities started to take place here, such as voting, public speaking, social gatherings, criminal trials, gladiator matches, religious ceremonies and business deals, this small valley between the Palatine and Capitoline hills gradually turned into a multi-purpose hub filled with buildings, arches, streets and monuments. Most of the ancient Forum was destroyed in the 5th century AD, around the time when the Roman Empire fell into decline. Quiz Score: 8 out of 14
