Summary/Abstract: Civilization of ancient Europe collapsed, but all its achievements have not been destroyed. Strong roots of Greek and Roman culture, and especially the Roman law and Christianity, provided for the strong tree – Europe – to appear, grow and develop. Greek ancient philosophy is woven into the philosophy and science of Europe and also into the whole mankind. The Roman law created the system of laws of universal value which, expressed in Corpus iuris civilis, has been preserved and transferred to the descendants of Europe and the world. Christianity is unbreakably connected to the European culture, and the greatest influence on the lives of people in Europe had the Bible. Without ancient roots, Europe would have been different and probably less successful both in the past and today.
