That is why I think, it is not possible to compare these two great civilizations in all the spheres generally, but to describe their similarities and differences using a very specific examples. Such examples, that could be used to help us understand the issue a bit more, could be the two great buildings, the temples built in Europe in different periods, both serving as places of gods worship, both built to express the power and beauty of those gods through architecture and design. One of these two examples is a temple of the Greek goddess Athena, Parthenon, which was built in Greece in the 5th century BC on the Athenian Acropolis and the second one Pantheon, the building in Rome, built in 2nd century AD, to all the gods of Ancient Rome.
