Ancient Greece continued continued
Today was a rather bland Honors Western Civilization class. We continued with the 48 slide Google Slides on Ancient Greece and completed our note taking on pages 118-126. Here are some of the notes that I took today:
-fertile valleys cover 1/4 of Greece
-diet consists of grains, grapes, olives, and FISH!
-lack of resources most likely led to Greek colonization
-Mycenae is located on a rocky ridge on Peloponnesus, protected by a 20 foot thick wall
TROJAN WAR NOTES:
-Greeks have fought in many wars over time
-Trojan War- fought in 12th or 13th century BCE
-part of Greek Mythology
-believed to be fictional because of gods and goddesses until the 19th century excavations
-the goddesses Athena, Aphrodite, and Hera were given the "apple of discord"
-Paris judged Aphrodite as "the fairest"
-Aphrodite made Helen fall in love with Paris who took her back to Troy
-The Greeks developed myths about their gods
After taking these notes the bell rang and ended class.
