corresponding territory and North America. The Conquest initiated in 1519 and properly he did not conclude, since the territory of New Spain continued growing towards the north at the cost of the territories of the peoples indigenous to the desert, some of which were never submitted by the Spanish. The Viceroyalty of New Spain was established officially on March 8, 1535. His first viceroy was Antonio of Mendoza and Pacheco and the capital of the viceroyalty was the Mexico City established on the former Tenochtitlan.

Art in Greece The art of the Antigua Greece divides stylistically in four periods: Geometric Archaic Classic Hellenistic

3 Greek orders: Doric order: It is the most primitive and simple of the architectural classic orders, is the Greek excellent order. The more ancient, archaic, the the more awkward, giving sensation of hardiness, the more late, the more slender and proportionate it is; achieving this way the harmony and classic beauty. Ionic order: Columns normally of foot on a base that separates the axis of the column of the estilbato or platform; the lid is in the habit of being enriched by egg and darts.

Romanesque style: The Romanesque art originated in France, focused in the construction of lasting temples. The determination in this type of architecture was very a perfectionist, and with the resolution of tectonic problems in search of the height and the light.

In the corridors we can observe the forms of the domes in the ceiling and see that also there are parts that are like in the Roman houses; since it has a court with source that is not roofed to allow that the water should fall down when it rains.

We see that in the epoch of the viceroyalty there are constructions, sculptures, paintings, etc; that has the similar one to the Greek and Roman art. With the example of the Roman arch and 3 Greek orders, we verify his influence worldwide; since the European culture after the conquest shared this knowledge with the aborigines of North America.
