Art Achievement Add a picture, and tell me about this achievement. This golden, dome shaped building was built in Jerusalem by Umayyad caliph 'Abd al-Malik from 685 to 619. It was meant to express the Muslims' growing self confidence and Islams golden age. Hence the gold dome. To me it looks like it is being used to express Islams' competitiveness to other local buildings of other religions. The Byzantium was a huge comp for them as well. Art Achievement
