These Intro Guides are thematic, geographic, or time-period based introductions to various topics in Ancient Studies. Each Intro Guide contains basic background information, lists of key terms and definitions, brief summaries of previous scholarship and important works in the field, lists of relevant online resources, and a bibliography–all written in plain language for non-specialists.
The SASA Access Team would like to thank our SASA interns who contributed to producing the Intro Guides (Katia Margariti; Raquel Robbins, and Carlotta Piantanida), as well as our Anna WIlliams for designing this webpage.
We also want your feedback–use the Google Form in the box above to help us improve existing and future Intro Guides. We will periodically update these files. Please e-mail Access Team leader, Dr. John Haberstroh (jhaberstroh@saveancientstudies.org) for any comments or questions, or if you would like to contribute to this project.
