Greeks built some magnificent structures, their contributions to structural theory were few and far between Pythagoras famous for the right angle theorem that bears his name. This theorem actually was known by the Sumerians in about 2000 B.C.E. Archimedes developed some fundamental principles of statics and introduced the term center of gravity Romans excellent builders and very competent in using certain structural forms such as semicircular masonry arches.
