  7. Herodotus: • Must use evidence • Analyze why (human behavior) “Ancient Greece was a powerful civilization under the leadership of Athens that left a lasting legacy on Western culture”?

  8. “Ancient” • 3000 BCE= earliest (Minoan, Mycanean) • 2000 BCE = Greek Speaking, Acheans • “Trojan War”, c. 1250 BCE • “Dark Ages” • 750-359 BCE = “Hellenic Greece” • Persian Wars (c. 500 BCE) • Battle of Marathon • Battle of Salamis • “Golden Age” = (477-431BCE) under Pericles • Pelopponesian Wars (431-404 BCE): Athens loses to Sparta and Pelop. League • Philip II, Alexander the Great = Empire (359-323BCE) • Hellenistic Greece • Rome!!

  9. “Greece”

  10. “Greece” • N: Macedonia • S: Peloponnesus • Islands, incl. Crete • Mts. • No rivers • 25% arable • POLIS: “city-state” (highest pt = acropolis) • Location: close to everything (trade, Egypt, Persian, Rome)

  11. “Powerful” • Phalanx= foot soldiers • Defeated Persian Empire • Athens: Marathon (“Nike”) (against Darius) • Sparta: Salamis (movie “300”) (against Xerxes)

  12. “Civilization” Definition of “Civilization”: highly advanced state of human society in which a high level of art, science, religion, and government has been achieved.

  13. “Advanced State of Human Society” • ART: idealized (vs. Roman = realistic) • Sculpture • Architecture (columns) • SCIENCE • RELIGION • Mythology • Drama (Comedy, Tragedy)

  14. Civ’n: “High level of govt:” Democracy: • Draco: Law • Solon: Popular Reforms • Cleisthenes: Athenian Assembly • Pericles: Direct Democracy • Polis: organized around city-state • All citizens could vote (citizen?)

  15. “Under the leadership of Athens”: Sparta may have won the Pelopponesian wars, but Athens Sparta Military (too many slaves) “Spartan life” – strict, brutal discipline “Laconic” answers Little art or lit. “Best fighters in the world” • Mind + body • Curiosity, free discussion

  16. “Under Athens” YES NO Peloponnesian League – Athens loses empire by 404 BCE Philip II of Macedonia and son, Alexander the Great = empire (334-323 BCE) Greece + Egypt + Persia = “Hellenistic culture” Science! Astronomy! • Delian League

  17. That left a lasting legacy…. I will defer to Socrates’ method of teaching in this instance…..my peers?

  18. Legacy…. • “Greece has conquered the conqueror” • Alexander the Great? • Rome?

  19. Perhaps greatest legacies = Philosophers • “Philos” = love • “Soph” = knowledge/learning
