Class Description:
The Onion once reported that ancient Greek civilization was a complete modern fraud, since obviously no one culture could have invented so much, not least all that Great Art and Architecture (http://www.theonion.com/articles/historians-admit-to-inventing-ancient-greeks,18209/). But they did. This course will explore the material world of ancient Greece, from the monumental (the Parthenon) to the mundane (waste management), and everything in between.
