1. They had to be breathtaking, engineering marvels of the "ancient" world. (classical world time period) 2. They had to be located around the Mediterranean, since the composer of the original list(s) were composed by various ancient Greeks; Herodotus during the 5th century BCE, Callimachus of Cyrene during the 4th-3rd century BCE, and Philon of Byzantium during the 3rd-2nd century BCE. They are (along with the modern day location) The Mausoleum at Halicarnassus - Turkey The Pyramids of Giza - Egypt The Lighthouse of Alexandria - Egypt The Temple of Artemis at Ephesus - Tukey The Statue of Zeus at Olympia - Greece The Colossus of Rhodes - Greece The Hanging Gardens of Babylon - Iraq Only the Pyramids of Giza has survived to this day.
