Some of the earliest known Last Judgment depictions in monumental art can be seen in ancient Greek art and architecture, paintings, sculpture, buildings, and decorative arts produced from about 1050 BC to 31 BC. Greek civilization encompassed not only mainland Greece but also nearby islands in the Aegean Sea, the western coast of Turkey (known as Ionia), southern Italy and Sicily (known as Magna Graecia, or Great Greece), and by the late 300s BC, Egypt, Syria, and other Near Eastern lands. Among its best-known monuments are stone temples, statues of human figures, and painted vases.
