Uncover deep mysteries about the ancient civilizations of the Near East—and their indelible impact on the history of the world—with Origins of Great Ancient Civilizations. This course is your introduction to the fascinating civilizations that often receive only a few lines of cursory discussion in the average textbook on Western civilization, including: the Hitties, the Assyrians, and the Sumerians. Along the way, award-winning Professor Kenneth W. Harl examines the evolution of writing, the development of vast empires, and the growth of trade. Filled with insights into ancient history, this course will give you a new appreciation of our own roots, and a rock-solid foundation for deeper exploration.
