Ancient Greek LIFE man in the mirror

MIlitary-
The goal of education in the Greek city-states was to prepare the child for adult activities as a citizen. The nature of the city-states varied greatly, and this was also true of the education they considered appropriate. In most Greek city-states, when young, the boys stayed at home, helping in the fields, sailing, and fishing. At age 6 or 7, they went to school. Both daily life and education were very different in Sparta [militant], than in Athens [arts and culture] or in the other ancient Greek city-states.




Social life- Only free, land owning, native-born men could be citizens entitled to the full protection of the law in a city-state (later Pericles introduced exceptions to the native-born restriction). In most city-states, unlike Rome, social prominence did not allow special rights. Sometimes families controlled public religious functions, but this ordinarily did not give any extra power in the government. In Athens, the population was divided into four social classes based on wealth. People could change classes if they made more money. In Sparta, all male citizens were given the title of equal if they finished their education. However, Spartan kings, who served as the city-state's dual military and religious leaders, came from two families.





Food- Greek cuisine (Greek: Ελληνική Κουζίνα) is the traditional cuisine of Greece, a typical Mediterranean cuisine[1], sharing characteristics with the cuisines of Italy, the Balkans, Anatolia, and the Levant. Contemporary Greek cookery makes wide use of olive oil, vegetables and herbs, grains and bread, wine, fish, and various meats, including poultry and rabbit.[1] Typical ingredients in Greek cuisine are lamb and pork, olives, cheese, eggplant, zucchini, and yogurt. The desserts are dominated by nuts and honey. Some dishes use phyllo pastry.[1]






Family life-- The Greek way of life is based around the family, church and patriotism. They are proudly patriotic, this is due to the trials and tribulations of successive rulers, invasions and wars, though this sometimes leads to suspicion of other nationalities, considering their history it is not surprising that some of the people feel this way, but patriotism, should not be confused with racial discrimination.

Joel-red

clothing- Clothes were mainly homemade; and often served many purposes (such as bedding.)

entertainment- They watched people get eatin up by lions.

Egyptian Game Questions :p (Jo wasn't here yesterday) :[

Blue=Jo
Red= Ralph

a. What is a "stela"? It tells you what sort of person was buried (or mummified) in the tomb
b. What type of writing did Ancient Egyptians use?heiroglyphs (impossible to read)
c. Once you decipher the hieroglyphs, what does it spell? Priest
d. Once you descend into the tomb, what do you find? Statues, Jars, and a coffin (The content inside the jars were gross. =P)
e. What do the statues represent? Guard Dogs (I like cats better. lol)
f. Describe the gods of the Ancient Egyptians. Well they were special and mummified when they were found dead. (Died peacefully in their sleep successful, murdered with failure in their life, whatever it was they were always mummified.) :P
g. What are the "canopic" jars? What's in them? Differing animals. GUTS! (O_o)
h. What is the coffin made of? Wood (boring)


Jo's- Well, I learned some other information about Egypt playing this. It was pretty cool to find out about the guts in the jars even if it is a bit disturing. It was a pretty fun game and it taught me a little bit of information about how the Egyptians were when it came to mummification. :p

Ralph's- Well,
