Abstract

The climatic considerations and criteria used for designing cities and residential buildings in this geographic region during that time were reflecting a deep understanding of nature and the potential of passive systems in improving the ambient built environment, are still valid today. This understanding was not confined in the environmental aspects of the urban scene as much as that it reflected accurately as well the social and political environment of those people. A point proven by comparing the differences between the ancient Greek to the Roman cities and buildings. The art of working with nature in building within the cities was slowly forgotten by the people in Southern Europe during the dark ages, while the country folk were dealing with only the very essential issues of the natural environment that later evolved into what is now recognized as indigenous rural or island vernacular architecture.
