1 Name: Due Date: Chapter 4 Reading Guide Classical Civilization in the Mediterranean: Greece and Rome UNIT SUMMARY The civilizations of Greece and Rome rivaled those of India and China in cultural richness and their effect on world history. Their institutions and values reverberated in the later histories of the Middle East and Europe and Europe s colonies around the world. The study of classical Mediterranean civilization is complicated because it includes Greek and then Roman political, social, and economic institutions, which were sometimes shared but often unique. Using the maps on page 69, draw the outline of the Greek civilization s boundaries in 431 BCE and label the following: (NOTE: the orange, green, and purple areas are ALL Greek) o Sparta o Ionia o Asia Minor o Aegean Sea o Peloponnesus o Macedonia o Athens o Crete o Mediterranean Sea 1. How might have Greece s geography contributed to its development of sea trade with Egypt and Phoenicia?

What led the Greeks to have this type of political unit rather than a unified empire? 12. Examine your text for who the Greeks took their alphabet from. Then think about who the Greeks influenced and who those people influenced in turn. Now, where do the letters that make up this page of writing originate? 13. In what area of the Mediterranean did the Greeks focus their trade and colonization efforts? 14. What two Greek city-states were at the heart of the Peloponnesian Wars and what did those wars lead to? ROME (P ) 15. What new Mediterranean power conquered and absorbed Greek culture? 16.

In general, what is the key difference between them? 23. What was the final catastrophe that marked the end Rome? How is this similar to the end of Han China and Gupta India? 24. Besides that final reason for the fall of Rome, what were some other factors in its decline?
4 25. What new religion was adopted in Rome in 313 CE? (HINT: the Catholic Church) GREEK AND ROMAN POLITICAL INSTITUTIONS (P. 72) NOTE: Aristocratic means nobles or upper class citizens and were usually large land owners who inherited their property from their fathers. If you were in the aristocracy you were most likely born into it. 26. Describe the common political obligations and customs of citizens in Greece and Rome. 27.

5 35. Read the short passage by Pericles on p. 73 and assess the validity of this statement: Athenian democracy and the principles espoused by Pericles are echoed in present day Western democracies such as the United States. Your answer MUST follow this format: While Athenian democracy and principles were similar to modern Western democracies in that, (cite several similarities), there were significant differences such as (cite several dissimilarities). 36. What was the most common form of government in the Mediterranean world? ROME (P ) 37. Roman citizens would gather to vote in assemblies but they would not vote on laws. What were they voting on? (HINT: that s why Rome was called a republic) 38. What was the most powerful lawmaking body in the Roman Republic? (HINT: it shares the same name as ½ of the U.S. Congress). 39. The United States has a President who serves as the executive (enforcing) authority. What did Rome have? 40. Rome had an unusual practice of handing total power to one individual during emergencies so quick and decisive decisions could be made for the good of the country. What was this person called?

What happened to the Senate when the Roman Republic transformed into the Roman Empire? Where did its power go? 42. Describe Rome s attitude to toward various religions.

IN DEPTH: THE CLASSICAL MEDITERRANEAN IN COMPARATIVE PERSPECTIVE (P ) 48. Fill in the chart below using just the first two paragraphs on page 75 in this section. Describe the common political, economic, and social characteristics shared by Greece & Rome, India, and China. Political - Economic - Social- Point of Comparison Greece & Rome India China 49. Record social hierarchy differences between the 3 classical civilizations. Focus on content in paragraphs 3 ( Within this common ), 4, 5, & 6. Address the following 3 areas: who was at the top & bottom of each social class, mobility, and what held each system together. You may write outside the triangles if needed.
7 RELIGION AND CULTURE (P. 76) 50. How did Rome and Greece differ from India and China in the area of religion? (keep in mind that for something to be significant it needs to spread and influence other areas) 51. What allowed Christianity to spread within the Roman Empire? 52. What was lacking from the Greco-Roman religion that lower class people desired? 53. During what sort of times or events did people turn to religion more often than other times? (NOTE: this is human nature and explains why so many criminals become Christians or Muslims while in prison and especially when they are about to be executed.) 54. Read the quote below about the ruler of the Greek gods, Zeus (Jupiter to Romans), and then explain why the Greeks and Romans had to invent separate ethical systems for people to model their behavior after whereas Hindus, Confucianists, Daoists, Buddhists, Jews, and Christians did not. Zeus did indeed bring order out of Chaos, but one of his failings was that he did not look kindly upon the people, those creatures that populated the lands over which he reigned. Many were not beautiful, and Zeus had contempt for anyone who was not beautiful. And of course they were not immortal, as the Olympian gods were, and they complained about the lack of good food and the everlasting cold nights. Zeus ignored their complaints, while he and the other gods feasted endlessly on steaming hot game from the surrounding forests, and had great crackling fires in every room of their palaces where they lived in the cold winter. Greek Creation Myths by Daphne Elliott Identify: Aristotle Don t believe everything you hear. What famous Greek does this expression best personify? Why? 57. Your text states that the Greeks were not outstanding empirical scientists. Look up the word empirical and explain what the Greeks were not doing (usually) that students who study the scientific method are taught to do in school today. 58. In what academic areas did Greeks produce important achievements? 59. What theory of Ptolemy s was wrong but dominated Western teachings until the Renaissance (HINT: Galileo & Copernicus). 60. In what area did Romans excel in particular?
8 61. If an ancient Greek and Roman were to see the White House or Lincoln Memorial today and were told they represent classical architecture, they both would say wrong. Why? 62. What was Rome s architectural achievement? ECONOMY AND SOCIETY IN THE MEDITERRANEAN (P. 80) 63. What 3 aspects were the economies of Greece and Rome based on? 64. What part of Greek and Roman society is most left out of our conception of that time period? (HINT: we re focused on cities and their products like art, politics, etc.) 65. How did agriculture and geography encourage the Greeks and later Romans to become traders with connections around the Mediterranean Sea? 66. Who were the Greeks & Romans trading with beyond the Mediterranean? 67. What trading problem did they encounter with these far away peoples? (NOTE: Get used to it. This problem will be an ongoing problem in the West until the Industrial Revolution.)
9 68. Once again, rank the status of merchants in the classical civilizations we ve studied. Record the name of each civilization below based on the degree of status it awarded merchants within its social structure. (Mediterranean = Greece & Rome) 69. Cite several examples of how slaves were used in the Mediterranean. Be sure to note the use of Greek slaves by Romans. 70. How did slavery encourage the expansion of militaries and conquests? 71. Use the quote below and your text to explain why the Greeks and Romans did not pursue advances in technology, leaving the West at a trade disadvantage with the East for centuries. (HINT: people without jobs/food get angry, they may riot, they may... NOTE: Glass was one of the few Western exports besides exotic animals and precious metals sent to the East over the Silk Road.) When a mechanical engineer found a better way to move heavy columns, the Emperor Vespasian (d. AD 79) gave him a reward but refused to adopt the technology. Said the emperor You must let me feed my poor commons ( commons meaning ordinary laborers/slaves). A similar but less heartwarming story is also told about the Emperor Tiberius (d. AD 37), who supposedly met the inventor of plastic ( unbreakable glass ). Tiberius had the man beheaded, lest, he said, gold be reduced to the value of mud. Innovation and incentives by Suzanne Scotchmer
10 72. Describe the economic role of women in Greece and Rome. 73. Cite one example of how women were unfairly treated in comparison to men in Rome. 74. Cite one example of how later Roman law made the treatment of women better, although still unequal. 75. How did the treatment of women in Greece and Rome compare to China? TOWARD THE FALL OF ROME (P. 84) ( Hint: refer to page 71 to help you) 76. When did Rome begin to decline? 77. Describe geographically the fall of Rome. TIMELINE Insert the following events into the timeline. Pick up on the dates as you read them in the text. The timeline at the front of the chapter will also be invaluable to you. A. end of Punic Wars F. Cyrus the Great begins rule of B. Peloponnesian Wars C. Persian Wars D. Alexander the Great dies E. rise of Greek city-states Persian Empire G. Beginnings Of Roman Republic H. Rise of Roman Empire I. Fall of Rome 1000 BCE 476 CE
