Document Summary

C l a s s i c a l s t u d i e s 2 5 0 0 a / b. Medieval, roman = historical since there are so many texts that we can look at. Not really gonna talk about stone age, gonna talk about neolithic. Neolithic: a lot of phenomena that we will talk about (proto urban, settled community) Stone, chalcolithic, bronze, iron: named from the tools they use, made of those. Bronze (copper+tin) is softer, iron is harder note: iron is in ore, have to extract it, heat it, process involved. This technology moves with people; with trading (it is a gradual transition) Britain is not part of the mediterranean, but culture was gotten from here. *far-east: showing you the roman empire (massive area of imperial control) Gives a sense of all the areas we will be talking about (even in the east end) Year 146, the year than romans conquered both carthage and greece.
