• HIST 3050: Ancient Near East and Egypt

  3.00 Credits

  The University of Tennessee - Chattanooga

  
  This course will explore both Ancient Egyptian and Near Eastern culture and geography to understand the foundations of these earliest civilizations and their impact on the ancient world. We will investigate some of the most important technological developments, sociopolitical formations, and creative works of these societies from ca. 4,000 to ca. 300 BCE. Some of the cultures we will study include Egypt, Sumeria, Akkad, Babylonia, Assyria, the Philistines, and the Canaanites. The study of ancient history is fascinating in that it is dependent on a combination of documentary evidence and archaeological sources. In this class, students will learn how to “read” both types and understand how the narrative history we know today is derived from these sources. Offered every 4 to 5 semesters. May be registered as CLAS 3050. No credit in both CLAS 3050 and HIST 3050.
