I thought 4 of them were:
Pyramid of Giza (only one left standing.
Hanging Gardens
the Library of Alexandria?
Colossians of Rhodes
I cannot for the life of me remember the others!
Please do correct if I've been a muppet.

The Kiwi Hellenist blog has a good post on the seven wonders (can we post links here? You know how to google). There's more than one list of ancient wonders, and they don't all list the same things. Antipater of Sidon, for example, replaces the Pharos with the walls of Babylon. |
