I often roll my eyes when people talk about aliens traveling to earth to build impossible structures, but when it comes to the Pantheon… it actually does kinda seem like it was built by aliens.
Like… how?! How was the dome supported during construction and how is it still standing? Absolutely wild.
It’s impossible for me to comprehend how it was built, and how it’s managed to last this long. The answer might as well be “magic,” judging by the awe I experience when thinking about it.
The temporary support system constructed underneath it to support the dome during construction would’ve been quite the sight.
I think the Pantheon is the most impressive architecture that our species have ever produced. I’d love to see it some day.
That was a great read!
