Liz- Medical

Ancient Medicine, particularly of Greece and Rome, has been influenced many aspects of modern medicine.

Most bones in the human body has come from Latin. Which we use for Biology.

Advanced Roman Medicine and the surgical instruments used were in many ways amazingly similar to Medical practices of the Nineteenth Century.

Liz- Architecture

Architecture was crucial to the success of Rome.

Echoes of the tradition of the Roman Empire are found in cities throughout the western world.

The tradition of Roman architecture has had an important influence on American architecture(ex. courthouses throughout America can be seen to be based on Roman architecture).

Liz- Linguistics

Latin became the language of the Western Church, focused on Rome, beginning well before the emergence of Christianity as the dominant religion in the Roman world.

The Greek alphabet comes from a lot of the languages we speak today(ex. alphabet as in beta, the first letter in the Greek alphabet).

"As someone trained in foreign languages and theoretical linguistics, I completely agree with the experts quoted in Why your kids should learn Latin. I would add that the study of Ancient Greek stems and affixes is equally valuable. As a follow-up to this article, I would suggest that you compile a short course on the meanings of Greek and Latin stems and affixes, focussing upon their value as reading aids in English and the Romance languages." - Anonymous, from Users Feedback

Liz- Philosophy

As many of us know the famous Aristotle.

"One approach to this answering the question "What is Greek philosophy" is to explore the etymology of the Greek word "philosophy" (philosophia). The term "philosophy" is a compound word, composed of two parts: philos (love) and sophia (wisdom), so that literally it means love of wisdom. To be a philosopher is to love wisdom."
