Stephanie Copoulos-Selle: "This book is a new edition of a classical antiquity guidebook. Travel guides to view the Seven Wonders were popular during the 1st and 2nd centuries B.C. The ancient Greeks used the word 'theamata,' which means 'sights' or 'things to be seen.' Later the word 'thaumata,' which means wonder, was used. The Seven Wonders were remarkable then as well as today. Five of the seven wonders are Greek. The Hellenistic travelers of the 4th and 5th centuries were able to celebrate their country's amazing contributions to the world's art and architecture.
