The Ten Books on Architecture is a comprehensive treatise on architecture written by the ancient Roman architect Vitruvius. It was originally written in Latin around 15 BC and consists of ten books, each of which covers a different aspect of architecture. The first book discusses the principles of architecture, including the importance of symmetry, proportion, and harmony. The second book covers building materials, including stone, wood, and brick. The third book discusses the planning and design of temples, while the fourth book covers public buildings such as markets and courthouses. The fifth book focuses on private dwellings, including houses and villas. The sixth book covers water supply and drainage systems, while the seventh book discusses heating and ventilation. The eighth book covers various types of machines and mechanical devices, including cranes and water mills. The ninth book discusses the design and construction of siege engines, while the tenth book covers the design and construction of theaters and other public entertainment venues. The Ten Books on Architecture is a seminal work in the field of architecture and has influenced architects and builders for centuries.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
