The second temple was built by Herod the great in 20 B.C. but was not completed until A.D. 64. The temple was built after the first temple was destroyed by the Babylonians in 586 BCE. The temple was built on the ruins of the first temple known as the Solomon’s temple on the temple mount. The temple as seen in the image above was a masterpiece of architecture regarding its time of construction. In addition, the temple underwent a series of renovations and dismantling in its life time

Aristotle was a remarkable great philosopher. Aristotle might be thought of being involved in theoretical sciences that were more focused on nature and metaphysics. Like religion that firmly explains nature and humanity, Aristotle was credited for formulation of philosophical writings describing nature and life in a more conceptual manner and is thought to have laid down the discussion regarding the unmoved mover that was later explained by religious philosophers (Knight, 2009). The image of Aristotle is captivating in that no text provides a clear picture of Aristotle and only well thought images are used in texts.

Phase 3- st. Peter’s Basilica 323 CE- after 337 CE

The Basilica of st. Peter is perhaps one of the most remarkable architectural works in the church history. The Basilica is believed by many Christians especially the Catholics to have been built on the spot where st. Peter was buried soon after his martyrdom in 64CE in Rome. It is therefore taken as a remarkable pillar in the Christian religion. According to Knight (2009), the building as shown above is an architectural masterpiece measuring about 693.8 feet in length by about 404.8 feet in height to the dome.

Phase 4- Pope Gregory I: 540AD- 604 AD

Pope Gregory I better known as Gregory the great can be explained as a pope who defined the church history particularly to the Catholics to greater lengths. He was more credited with reformation of the mass orders, founding hundreds of monasteries and as a reformer in the mediaeval papacy period (Knight, 2009). The Gregorian chant has been credited to him. The image above portrays Gregory the great as a serious highly active person, an attribute that has been used to describe his legacy.
