The Ancient & Medieval World is a collaborative, open educational resource designed to
help students better understand a world long removed from their contemporary experience.
The text uses a modular format where students are provided with a brief introduction to
each theme, several primary sources, interpretive material written by subject-matter
experts, relevant maps and timelines, and visual sources, as well as a glossary of
unfamiliar terms. Each module can be used as the foundation of a course assignment or
thematic lesson.

I live, work, and play in a region south of the Fraser River which overlaps with the
unceded traditional and ancestral lands of the Kwantlen, Musqueam, Katzie, Semihamoo,
Tsawwassen, Qayqayt, and Kwikwetlen peoples.
