A Visual Tour of Ancient Greece and Rome

Imagine you are narrating a guided tour throughout the ancient Greek and Roman worlds.

 

Create a 700- to 1,050-word tour guide describing the places and artifacts that the tourists will see.

 

Include the following in your tour:

 

  • Visit at least three cities in the ancient Greek world (this includes Greece, Crete, and modern Turkey), and describe what can be found in each.
  • Three specific pieces of ancient Greek sculpture
  • Artifacts from a mixture of the Bronze Age, the Golden Age, and the Hellenistic Greek periods
  • Three specific pieces of ancient Roman architecture (not limited to the city of Rome, but built by Romans)
  • Discuss two pieces of Roman literature. The tourists will need to be entertained during those long drives through the countryside!
  • Explain the significance of each place or artifact discussed on the tour.
  • Include at least five images to illustrate your guide.
