Egyptian Civilization prospered from about 3000 BC until its gradual and amalgamation into the Greek and then the Roman Empires. Until AD 100, Egyptian Architecture was highly sophisticated but static - an architecture of monuments. 

The massive stone that make up the extraordinary monument of Stonehenge near Amesbury in Wiltshire were collected and arranged over the course of some 1,400 years between 2750 and 1300 BC. There were altogether around 150 stones, some brought from quarries in Wales, some 22 ft (6.7m) high, and some weighing about 45 tonnes.A number of astronomical parallaxes relating to both solar and lunar calendars have been established on a historical basics.

Greek Architecture is the most important and influential in Western history. Reaching a peak   
between 400 and 300 BC, it was developed, some would say vulgarized, by the Romans and   
then absorbed into the Byzantine.   
The Egyptian palaces and temples were built for the satisfaction of priests and royalty; the   
public at large never penetrated these sanctuaries. Greek society, however was totally   
inclusive and stone was used for structures covering uses that reflected a much wider and   
more open society in which literature, music, drama and sport thrived.
