Summary

"Ancient Greece has had an impact on much of our culture, especially the concepts of democracy and theater, the tradition of Olympic sports, and the famous myths that are still a focus of today's movies, books, and TV shows. These fascinating aspects of the Greek civilization are examined as well as the features of ordinary life in ancient Greece, such as housing, clothing, and school. Several key concepts are supported by step-by-step craft projects that further draw readers into this amazing ancient world. Readers can choose to make a Medusa wig, decorate pottery in the style of Greek art, or construct an Olympic victor's olive leaf crown."--From publisher
