A list enumerating the Seven Wonders of the World first appears in about 130 in a poem written by Antipater of Sidon in the Greek “Anthology”.

His top seven are the pyramids of Egypt, the Walls and the Hanging Gardens of Babylon, the Temple of Artemis at Ephesos, the Statue of Zeus at Olympia, the Mausoleum at Halikarnassos, and the Colossus of Rhodes.
