When was the list made?
The final list of the Seven Wonders was compiled during the Middle Ages. Only two of the seven were not Greek built. Do you know which two they were?
- The Great Pyramid of Egypt
- The Hanging Gardens of Babylon
- The Statue of Zeus at Olympia in Greece
- The Temple of Artemis at Ephesus
- The Mausoleum at Halicarnassus
- The Colossus of Rhodes
- The Lighthouse of Alexandria
