Abstract
The city , is one of the expanded and most complex systems that the human beings
ever known, as it exist through continuous development and changing process through
time. Each generation extends substitutes , re-arranges and adopts what it inherits
before passing with to the new generation, therefore the city can be called ina
moment of time as a group of dynamic processes more than being constant facts. The
city is a product ofa large number of resolutions within its reality, having the small
and large measurement to be connected with the social structures and ideological
constructions of its occupant, that community creates over time, but remains obscure
to the individuals at any moment The obvious similarity of the cities urban structures overtime and in different parts of the world, indicates to the existence of main types of spatial organization, beyond different structures, which refer to the possibility of building theoretical concepts regarding a spatial theory of the city, through gaining access to the basic logic in creating the physical structures of the city•more over to explain the relation
between the city form and its function
