http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/sunken/wonders/
Use science, geography and history clues to identify the Seven Wonders
of the Ancient World. The notion of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient
World can be traced back to the fifth century BC, from a list created by
the Greek historian Herodotus. These creations rivalled many created by
nature in their size, majesty, and beauty. Six of the seven wonders no
longer stand, having been destroyed by natural disaster or by humans.
