Hi everyone! I am Christian Romero, the principal modeler and animator for this video. I'm incredibly excited to have worked on this; it was a really challenging video, and the first time I have worked on something of this scale. I'm really hoping I get to work on more videos like this. I'm going to the University of Connecticut this coming Fall to pursue a Master of Fine Arts, because I want to learn all I can both about 3D art and cultural preservation/restoration efforts. While I applied to UConn before I was offered a chance to freelance with K&G, it's a very happy coincidence that I got to work on a project that explicitly ties my skills in 3D with my passion for history and culture. I certainly hope to carry this passion going forward. This is also the first time I've worked on something that'll potentially get this many eyeballs on it, so I'm really excited to read all your comments.

I pretty sure other than earthquake damage both structures were pillaged for stone for other building projects. The colossus of Rhodes was also around for a long time though collapsed into the structure it stood over and was later pillaged for it's metals. I want to say that the mausoleum of halicarnassus had standing ruins for a long period of time until its materials were repurposed leaving the base structure that exists today.

It'd have been neat to see stuff from the Americas, since the original list was made before the two landmass made contact. Texcotzinco is a incredible Aztec palace/garden that's sadly obscure and would be an excellent choice: This was the royal retreat for rulers of the city of Texcoco, the second most powerful Aztec city after Tenochtitlan, and was engineered by Nezahualcoyotl, the city's most famous king: Texcotzinco was located on a hill, with a palace on the summit, a series of bathes and shrines, and a series of botanical gardens with different sections mimicking different Mexican biomes at the base. It sourced water from a spring over 5 miles away, with the aquaduct that brought it raising 150 feet off the ground in some spots. The aquaduct brought water to a series of basins and channels on an adjacent hills to control the water's flow rate, then the aquaduct passing over the gorge between the hills, and forming a circular circuit around the Texcotzinco hill itself, with the water flowing through the shrines and their displays with statues and painted frescos, as well as the bathes, before finally forming artificial waterfalls to water the gardens below. Fernando Ixtlilxochitl, a descendent of Texcoca royalty, from the late 16th/early 17th century decades/a century after the conquest writes about the site: "These parks and gardens were adorned with rich and sumptuously ornamented alcazars (summerhouses) with their fountains, their irrigation channels, their canals, their lakes and their bathing-places and wonderful mazes, where he had had a great variety of flowers planted and trees of all kinds, foreign and brought from distant parts... and the water intended for the fountains, pools and channels for watering the flowers and trees in this park came from its spring: to bring it, it had been necessary to build strong, high, cemented walls of unbelievable size, going from one mountain to the other with an aqueduct on top which came out at the highest part of the park. The water gathered first in a reservoir beautified with historical bas-reliefs, and from there it flowed via two main canals (to north and south), running through the gardens and filling basins, where sculptured stelae were reflected in the surface. Coming out of one of these basins, the water ‘leapt and dashed itself to pieces on the rocks, falling into a garden planted with all the scented flowers of the Hot Lands, and in this garden it seemed to rain, so very violently was the water shattered upon these rocks. Beyond this garden there were the bathing-places, cut in the living rock... The whole of the rest of this park was planted, as I have said, with all kinds of trees and scented flowers, and there were all kinds of birds apart from those that the king had brought from various parts in cages: all these birds sang harmoniously and to such degree that one could not hear oneself speak" There's plenty of other options, too: Machu Picchu is an obvious one (less known is the adjacent mountain of Huayna Picchu, which towers over Machu and has the entire summit converted into a terraced complex); Tenochtitlan in general as an entire city could quality,; the Great Pyramid of Cholula; Tikal's various water mangement systems; Teotihuacan's pyramids or urban sprawl; Cahokia, Pueblo Bontio, Chan Chan, Pumapunku/Tiwanku, Caral, etc. If you do ever wanna do wonders from the Americas, or more stuff on Mesoamerica in general, I'd love to help out: I believe we even discussed that years ago!

Though these are awesome suggestions indeed, im pretty the reason they didn’t include these was because this was a video on the wonders of the ‘ancient’ world. The period of time we call the ancient world ended in the 500s CE, all of the wonders you’ve suggested from the Americas were all built during the Middle Ages (roughly 500-1500).

Sir Misc has a good point. Most of the New World wonders were built during the Middle Ages. MajoraZ I love your ideas though. I was thinking about potential New World wonders as I was watching this video. I was going to comment about it myself, but then I saw your comment.

@@MajoraZ Oh sorry my bad on that, there are definitely a few things you’ve mentioned that were built during the ancient world. And you’re also right on that the “ancient americas” lasted quite a while until the fall of the Aztecs. But the ancient world and the ancient americas are two very distinct things that aren’t as a whole very related due to the ancient americas lasting far longer than the ancient world. Because compared to the Old World, the New World went through very little revolutionary changes during the same period of time. So something that was built in the ancient americas, doesn’t translate to it being built in the ancient world, (ie Aztecs, Inca).

When certain ancient settlements are abandoned, they are left to the elements and are often buried by the sands of time or are resettled but built over by newcomers who probably are not aware of the existence of the wonders they live on. The city of Troy for example was buried beneath several layers of newer cities that came after it.

At 122 metres (400 ft), it was the world's tallest stupa, and the third tallest structure in the world after the pyramids, and the tallest brick structure in the world to date. # Alahana pirivena - a monestry complex built in 1153 AD, which included a hospital as well. their have been finds of surgical instruments from here.

Regarding Petra which i personally visited, at the time it was built the area was not as dry as it's today. The site was gradually destroyed by a combination of climate change (end of Roman warm period) and more importantly land mismanagement, eapecially during early caliphate. This allowed nomads to take control of the region and gradually shifting the trade routes to other locations (trade shifted gradually to Suez-Cairo route or Arabia-Iraq-Antiochia route along the Euphrates, Incense road on which Petra sat was mostly abandoned, Sea road was used mostly for military traffic and it's settlements dwindled by the appearance of malarial swamps)

Bit misleading on the terracotta warrior segment. What made the 1st emperor's tomb complex impressive is not just the terracotta warriors, but because the warriors just merely a small part of the entire complex. The warriors have significant historical value due to them being deployed in actual battle formation, which no surviving sources describes in detail. They give incredible context to a long list of weapons in their actual usage. They are also showing the period's armor, uniform, and how an army's commanded and controlled. Terracotta warriors were also fully painted, they are not gray statues. The tomb mount is not a smooth curvy hill, originally it was built like a step pyramid made from the soil that were excavated to make room for the underground complex. The tomb is just as deep as it was tall and the underground complex were never breached. Archeologists are hesitant to dig into it due to their lack of confidence in preserving the artifacts.

@@mastrammeena328 this took about three months of part-time work to do.

@@mastrammeena328 God yeah, this was more work than I initially expected, especially since modeling the wonders in a rough format took a fraction of the time next to composing the scenes. The hard truth is that there is no easy answer to becoming good at a skill, besides dedicating a lot of hours to working on it. And what worked for me may not work for you. That said, what helped me to learn 3D modeling was having specific goals in mind - something I wanted to make which I was motivated enough to see through to the end. I learned 3D art in college, but I learned Blender - the current program I use - outside of uni because I had a couple projects I wanted to bring to reality. Even if not all of them came to fruition, just being able to work on them and try to problem solve to get them to how I wanted them taught me a lot. You really do learn a lot just by doing. If you would like KZbin tutorials to help guide you, I wholeheartedly recommend Sebastian Lague, Grant Abbitt, and Ian Hubert. Ian especially is great at breaking down how to do seemingly complex scenes with as little effort as possible. I hope this helps man, this stuff definitely takes a lot to learn but it is very rewarding if you can get past the learning curve.

The Catacombs of Kom el Shogatafa raise an interesting question. It must have been illuminated by torches or oil lamps, but how were they ventilated? Burning torches and lamps give off noxious fumes and smoke. Today, such fumes and smoke would be ventilated to the outside, and fresh air pumped inside by powerful blowers. What did they use thousands of years ago? Ventilating shafts or horizontal openings to the outside, would betray the existence of the catacombs, encouraging plundering by thieves.

Are you going to made videos also about Wonders of the Modern World? I wonder if the Valley of the Fallen would be included amongst them. Yes, it was a monument built by and for a fascist dictator that left my country into ruin for decades, and slaughtered thousands of political prisoners in its construction. But even then, one can't deny its architectural wonder. A wonder built by the desires of a megalomaniac, but that seems to be the case with the biggest historical monuments.

I tend to think of ancient as anything created before 476 AD (fall of Rome), medieval as anything between 476 AD and 1453 AD (fall of Constantinople), and modern as anything afterwards. But you could consider the start of modern times to be the Industrial Revolution or even the post-WWII era. It's very subjective

The list of the original "Seven Wonders" was made in Greece during the 3rd century BC. So it could not include the Colosseum and the Taq e Qisra bc both were built much later. Also, the (Greek) authors of the list did not know of the great metropolis of Xi'an. It was outside their world. Before i watched your video, i quickly made up my own list of "seven more wonders" from the top of my head. I only chose structures from the Eastern Mediterranean world which already existed in the 3rd century BC. And one of my choices even appeared in your video! * Athens, Parthenon * Carthage, Kothon (navy port) * Jerusalem, Solomon's temple * Babylon, Etemenanki ("tower of Babel") * Thebes, Karnak temple * Parsa (Persepolis), Apadana palace * Nineveh, Library of Ashurbanipal
