Expanding the Ancient World Workshop

Early Belief Systems: A Classroom Approach

Greg Woolf

This workshop is being organized by the OER Project and the Institute for the Study of the Ancient World. It will take place online. Registration is required; click through for the registration link. Zoom information will be provided via confirmation email to registered participants. Expanding the Ancient World is a series of professional development workshops and online resources for teachers.

Religion was embedded in every aspect of people's lives—at home, in the marketplace—and it informed everyday decisions.
