-== History ==
-It was first designed and erected by emperor [[Agrippa]] between 27 and 25 BC. In 80 AD, it was destroyed in a [[fire]], and was restored immediatly by an [[architect]] named Domitian. It burned down again in another fire in 110 AD, and this time it was restored and completely rebuilt by [[Hadrian]], who made the building as it is known today, from 118 to 128 AD. In 609, Brizantine emperor Phocas donated the building to then-Pope Boniface IV, who made it into a [[Catholicism|Roman Catholic church]], ''Santa Maria ad Martyres'', or ''The Church of Saint Mary and all the Martyres.'' This action preserved the building throughout the ages. It is still in use as a Catholic Church and holds service on all major Catholic holidays.
-== The Architecture ==
-The [[building]] is composed of two parts: The porch, a standard [[Roman]] feature with front stairs going up to a platform surrounded by pillars with a door to the dome, and the [[dome]], which was a huge circular room with a dome overhead. The dome room had a maximum height at the pinnacle of the dome of 43.3 meters, and the diameter of the circle of the dome was exactly 43.3 meters. Because of this, a perfect sphere could fit into the room, with a diameter of 43.3 meters.
