Books are not
enough. A student of Ancient Greek civilizations will need to visit
museums to view the wonderful things that have been produced by the
people. Sculptures, furniture, pottery, and ceramics
reflect the values of the artists of the period.
A viewer of an
artifact can learn much about a historic period by studying the works
of that period.
Visit a museum, take notes, and do look carefully at the artifacts on
display. Museums that are excellent for the study of
Greek History include the Walters' Gallery in
Baltimore, the Philadelphia Museum of Art, and the
Metropolitan Museum in New York.
A record of
the project should be made and include useful and interesting information that
seems importation to you. Comment on your observations of the objects
that you are studying. When you have completed the museum project, if
you have any overall comments about the collection, record them. |
