Installing this type of indoor feature positively affects your senses and your general well-being. The science behind this theory endorses the fact that water fountains can positively affect your health. Water features in general generate negative ions which are then counterbalanced by the positive ions released by the latest conveniences. When positive ions overtake negative ones, this results in improved mental and physical wellness. A rise in serotonin levels is felt by those who have one of these water features making them more alert, peaceful and lively. The negative ions produced by indoor wall fountains promote a better mood as well as remove air impurities from your home. Allergies, air-borne pollutants among other annoyances can be done away with by these water features. Finally, these fountains absorb dust particles and micro-organisms in the air thereby affecting your general well-being for the better.

The First Water Garden Fountains The water from springs and other sources was originally provided to the residents of nearby communities and municipalities by way of water fountains, whose purpose was mainly practical, not artistic. To generate water flow through a fountain until the later part of the 1800’s, and produce a jet of water, required gravity and a water source such as a spring or reservoir, positioned higher than the fountain. Fountains spanning history have been designed as monuments, impressing local citizens and tourists alike. If you saw the earliest fountains, you probably would not identify them as fountains. The first recognized water fountain was a rock basin carved that was used as a receptacle for drinking water and ceremonial functions. Rock basins as fountains have been found from 2,000 B.C.. The force of gravity was the energy source that controlled the earliest water fountains. Drinking water was delivered by public fountains, long before fountains became elaborate public monuments, as attractive as they are functional. Creatures, Gods, and religious figures dominated the initial decorative Roman fountains, starting to show up in about 6 BC. Water for the public fountains of Rome was delivered to the city via a elaborate system of water aqueducts.

The Defining Characteristics of Ancient Greek Statues

The Defining Characteristics of Ancient Greek Statues The first freestanding sculpture was improved by the Archaic Greeks, a notable achievement since until then the only carvings in existence were reliefs cut into walls and columns.

Symbolizing beauty to the Greeks, the kouroi were crafted to appear rigid and commonly had foot in front; the males were vigorous, strong, and nude. Life-sized versions of the kouroi appeared beginning in 650 BC. The Archaic period was an incredible point of change for the Greeks as they expanded into new forms of government, formed unique expressions of art, and achieved insights of the men and women and cultures outside of Greece. However, these conflicts did little to hamper the development of the Greek civilization.
