Lesser Known Ancient "Wonders" of the World

世界上鲜为人知的古代“奇观”

So everyone knows about Stonehenge, the Great Pyramids, the Colossus of Rhodes, the Hanging Gardens of Babylon, the Lighthouse (and of course) the Library of Alexandria, the Colosseum and Circus Maximus of Rome, and the Great Wall of China. But what are some other important but less discussed architectural achievements of the ancient and classical world?

每个人都知道巨石阵、大金字塔、罗得岛、巴比伦空中花园、灯塔(当然还有)亚历山大图书馆、罗马竞技场和罗马圆形大剧场以及中国长城。但是,古代和古典世界的一些其他一样重要但较少讨论的建筑成就有哪些?

Personally, I think Roman sewer system and their public baths are a fantastic wonder in and of themselves. Although less "flashy" than the well-known wonders, they served an extremely important sanitary purpose that helped make the Roman civilization stand-up even to a lot of modern expectations.

就我个人而言,我认为罗马下水道系统和他们的公共浴室本身就是一个奇妙的奇迹。尽管它们不像那些著名的奇迹那样“浮华”,但它们起到了极其重要的卫生目的,帮助罗马文明站起来,甚至达到了许多现代的做法。
