The Romans were able to build larger buildings than the Greeks by using _______.
The correct option is B arches
Ancient Roman architecture
adopted the external language of classical Greek architecture for the purposes
of the ancient Romans, but grew so different from Greek buildings as to become
a new architectural style. The two styles are often considered one body of classical
architecture. Roman architecture flourished in the Roman Republic and even more
so under the Empire, when the great majority of surviving buildings were
constructed. It used new materials, particularly concrete, and newer
technologies such as the arch and the dome to make buildings that were
typically strong and well-engineered. Large numbers remain in some form across
the empire, sometimes complete and still in use.
