Artemisia II

Description

Not only did Queen Artemisia build a splendid city but she created the prettiest tomb in the whole world.

Queen Artemisia and her husband King Mausolus loved filling their city, Halicarnassus, with beautiful temples, grand buildings and shiny statues made of gold and marble.

She would use plants as medicines. If her people were healthy and felt good, then they would be able to enjoy all the beautiful things around them!

Artemisia is most famous for creating a marvelous tomb, built on a hill above the city.

Her tomb was later called a MAUSOLEUM and it was chosen to be one of the SEVEN WONDERS OF THE WORLD because it was so pretty.

But, in the last years of her life, she had to defeat an army that was coming to take her kingdom from her!
