Welcome! This site will allow you to explore the influences of Roman Architecture as it impacts civil war period design. Under the tab labeled research you will find the main paper explaining the research done on this topic. Under the tab monuments are photographs of both the civil war monument and similar Roman constructions. As we look at the world around us we forget about the civilizations that were around long before us. Even though many of these great empires are long gone their marks still influence our lives every day.  My research focuses on how Rome has impacted our designs and structures throughout the Civil War Period.

MY LATEST RESEARCH

My latest research is about the influences of Roman architecture and design on civil war period monuments. The research goes in depth about some key aspects of design that I focus on and how they are replicated in the civil war period.
