The Seven Wonders of the World is a list of ancient incredible constructions, every so often, the new, modern one, is changed, but this list is the ancient Wonders.
1. [b]The Great Pyramid of Giza[/b]

Look at this motherfucker; look what these fucking egyptians did, these did some crazy shit, but look what they accomplished in the long-run. This badass piece of artwork was built in 2584-2561 BC for the sweet Pharoh Khufu. Badass.
2. [b]Hanging Gardens of Babylon[/b]

This huge garden ass thingy in the middle [b]of the fucking desert[/b] was this sweet amazing thing built for Amytis of Media, the wife of Nebuchadnezzar II, because she missed her home that she was taken from, which had many trees. This thing has plants from EVERYWHERE, and when I say that, I mean everywhere. There is this giant waterfall thingy that I guess continues to water the plants, falls back downs, waters again, and It is just badass.
3.[b]Statue of Zeus at Olympia[/b]

Yea, well this is this boring-ass statue of Zeus, which is cool, 'eh.
4.[b]Temple of Artemis[/b]

This thing, which everybody knows how it looks, which was built for a greek god, and it's like really cool, I guess.
5. [b]Mausoleum of Halicarnassus[/b]

This sweet tomb was built by the Persians, and like it’s so goddamn awesome. The original was supposedly built with like gold Lions and shit, and like sweet afterlife things. It got destroyed (like most other Wonders), but it’s still in our hearts.
6. [b] Colossus of Rhodes[/b]
[img]http://www.tqnyc.org/2006/NYC062731//rhodes.jpg [/img]
Another (boring) statue, but still really big. It’s a statue of Helios and like when you entered the Greek Island of Rhodes, I guess you got look look at it’s balls. Anyways, this thing was motherfucking HUGE.
7. [b] Lighthouse of Alexandria [/b]

Okay, this awesome thing was a tower built in Egypt, and back then, it may have even been the worlds tallest building, standing at 135 meters. They shot arrows and shit at enemies, and greeted heroes.
Well there they are, the Seven Wonders of the Ancient Worlds. DISCUSS!

Too bad the only one left is the pyramid.
egyptians are cool because they created the shadow games which turned into the modern popular trading card game we know as Yu-Gi-Oh
I like how none of them are in the US my god we suck.

ancient bud, not the 1800s. Don't think natives made anything of importance in terms of architecture besides totem poles anyways.
Nothing ancient interesting in the American continent other than this:

[QUOTE=Thomo;19019514]Ancient artifacts and buildings?
All I see is $$$ from those sucker tourists.[/QUOTE]
None of them stand today except for the pyramids.
The 7 Ancient Wonders were decided by some Macedonian and as he was a bit low on his frequent flyer miles he could only fly domestic; as in the empire of Alexander the Great.
That's why there aren't any Oriental or American temples.
I don't see the Pantheon on that list.
OP, are you a Turk, by chance?
Excuse me OP.
Temple of Artemis wasn't for the Greek god of the Hunt.
It was actually built for the Ephesian goddess of fertility.
There's a lot of confusion about it but it was Ephesian
