Let's Review!
As we know, Ancient Greece flourished in 750 through 338 B.C.E. Ancient Greece accomplished a lot as we know so let’s have a review of our website!
In Ancient Greece, Greece had two main Social Structures or Social Classes. As we know they are the Athens and Sparta. The reason why these two are very different is-
Athens
- Were peaceful and didn’t believe that fighting was an answer
Sparta
- Believed in fighting and thought it was right
Those were just a few examples but there is more to learn about the classes. On the other hand, Culture was a huge part of the Greeks’ life. Here are a few examples of the Greek Culture: The Greeks worshipped Gods and Goddesses, The Greeks asked the Gods for help on their journeys journeys journeys journeys Greeks also made the Olympic Games. Those were just some of the many different Culture beliefs but, there are more.
Last but not least we have the Contributions, there are about five different contributions here is a list of them.
Modern Language and Literature- This Contribution deals with how the Greeks made up words like for example: Telo= far away and then Phone= voice which then equals Telephone.
Contributions and Modern Government- This contribution deals with the different types of Government like an example is: Tyranny- was founded in 600 B.C.E, can not claim that he has the legal right to rule and a tyrant’s son does not inherit his father’s rule.
Contributions to Modern Medicine- In Greece, there was a doctor called Hippocrates and he is known for his name as “Father Of Medicine”
Modern Understanding Of The Body- In Ancient Greece, the doctors there couldn’t open the bodies because they thought it was rude and that the Gods would punish them.
Contributions to Modern Sports- The first Olympics were 776 B.C.E (in honor of the Greek God Zeus
In conclusion, Ancient Greece is probably one of the most excellent cultures because it grew into our life today. They were also the ones who made the first Olympics or even the ones who made words we still use today. So know wonder why Scientists still study this Culture today.
