Temple of Jupiter (Pompeii)
The building style of the town was largely borrowed from the Greeks, but Roman rule would soon lead to changes in this style.  As opposed to the previous Samnite rulers of Pompeii, the Romans thought that the building style was very important in religious as well as everyday life. Pompeii was changed into a much more public and open place.  Public buildings and spaces would eventually be able to be found all over the city.
