The Colosseum, an amphitheater in Rome, Italy, was built in 80 AD (Credit: FeaturedPics/ CC BY-SA 4.0 /Wikimedia Commons)

Despite technological advances, modern concrete structures start to crumble in just 50 years if not maintained. This contrasts sharply with Italian monuments that remain standing after over 2,000 years. Now, an international research team has finally uncovered how Roman concrete wonders continue to survive to this day.

              This means that we are less smart than we were in Ancient Rome.

                This is really similar to Ancient Indian architecture. Many Indian temples that were built centuries ago are still standing because these ancient civilizations were so advanced even back then. We haven’t even reached the level of this Roman architecture in modern buildings!
