Seven Wonders of the Ancient World ~ Tribute Cache Traditional Cache

This is a tribute cache to The NNJC's 2011 ~ GONE 7 ~ The Seven Wonders of the Ancient World Event held here at Camp Jefferson.

The Seven Wonders of the Ancient World refers to remarkable constructions of classical antiquity listed by various authors in guidebooks popular among the ancient Hellenic tourists, particularly in the 1st and 2nd centuries BC. The most prominent of these, the versions by Antipater of Sidon and an observer identified as Philon of Byzantium, comprise seven works located around the Mediterranean rim. The original list inspired innumerable versions through the ages, often listing seven entries. Of the original Seven Wonders, only one—the Great Pyramid of Giza, the oldest of the ancient wonders—has remained relatively intact until the present day.

THE SEVEN ANCIENT WONDERS: Great Pyramid of Giza, Hanging Gardens of Babylon, Temple of Artemis at Ephesus, Statue of Zeus at Olympia, Mausoleum of Halicarnassus,Colossus of Rhodes, and Lighthouse of Alexandria.
