Final Examination and Term Paper

 

A. Final Examination

 

On this study tour we encountered many different kinds of sites, artifacts,
and buildings. Choose three of the following categories/genres and write
briefly about each, citing as many examples as you can of each from what
we have seen.

Mention and describe some important examples of each, including their
dates and location. Describe and discuss their function, history, and place
in Greek life. Be sure to tell how each example typifies (or deviates from)
its genre. You do not need to be exhaustive; hit the highlights, and concentrate
on what you experienced on this trip. Get the information across efficiently.

You may use sources other than your memory and notes. Please include
a bibliography of all sources you consult. Check Mullins Library; it’s full
of good sources. Feel free to ask for suggestions on bibliography.

wishing to write on something other than what we saw or heard about together
must have instructor approval.
