HIST 10000 World History: The Ancient and Medieval World
GE-Human Culture: World History/Human Diversity World History: The Ancient and Medieval World is an introduction to your past—from the earliest writings of your human ancestors to the dawning of the modern world. If you’ve ever wondered why Columbus was looking for India (of all places) or why kings wore crowns or why Egyptians built pyramids (instead of aqueducts or a Great Wall), then this course is for you. You’ll not only learn about the distinct cultures that emerged in the Americas, Europe, Asia, and Africa but also how the peoples of those cultures interacted with one another. You simply can’t make sense of the world you live in without this course.
