This week we will begin our investigation into the ancient civilization of Greece. This is truly the birthplace of Western civilization. We will discuss how geography played a role in the development of culture, religion, and politics. We will examine the significant contributions made by the Greeks in philosophy, architecture, science, and the arts. Early in the week we will focus on the powerful city-states of Athens & Sparta. Towards the end of the week we will examine the empire of Alexander the Great and the spread of Greek culture through his conquests.
