an amazing deep dive into early Roman architecture focusing primarily on the influence of both Etruscan as well as Greek forms to create a standard Roman model
the city of cosa in Etruria which I have visited gives a fantastic view of architecture of the time and provides a stunning backdrop of the Mediterranean Sea in it location
I would recommend this course for anyone interested in early roman history and its architectural genesis
