The study of the Ancient World can be hugely rewarding, offering a rich, varied range of options for investigation and consideration. However, it's that very richness which can make it difficult to know exactly where to begin. To help, we've produced some suggestions for further reading on the three subjects we've focused on - cities, maths and medicine - and a range of courses which pick up on the themes of What The Ancients Did For Us.
