Favorite Ancient Civilization

[Tara]

Of the ancient civilizations you know about and as much you know about them, which one is your favorite and why? Of course, many of you know I'm into Egypt. I'm just fascinated by how they incorporated religion into their society. They're beliefs, some so strange and bizzare, but very interesting. I also think some of their outfits are interesting....at least the royal ones. And I like to study their ideas and their stances on issues that we discuss today such as homosexuality and such. And of course, the obvious on the pyramids and the sphinx, I like a good mystery.

Probably egypt too. Though I think I'd like to read up on ancient Asia too.

You know, a lot of people I talk to are into Ancient Asian culture (as well as modern).

Greek, Celtic, or Japanese...probably.

yay celtic ;D

i learned latin and classical greek in school, so sometimes i can add useless bit of information about what the romans or ancient greeks would have thought of something, or tell people about the roots of words, but i wouldn't say the romans or greeks were my favourite out of all the ancient races or anything ...

i never thought about it, really, but i like anything scottish, does that count? or is that just cos i'm a nutter

Hey, whatever you can relate too right? ;D

Ancient Kemet (Egypt) Obviously I've always been very interested in their history and beliefs.

I also enjoy the Ancient Greek and Roman cultures. The pasts of both of these cultures also interests me, to the point of near obsession lol No wonder I'm going to major in Classical Archaeology next year

Oh, that must be interesting. Let us know how it goes!
