Ancient History Study Sheet
2016
We have studied the civilizations of Ancient Egypt, India ,China, Greece this semester.
You are to begin studying by reviewing vocabulary and people. These are presented
below organized by civilization. We spent the most time on Greece so that is where the
most questions will come from. You should already have defined most words from
Egypt and Greece, in your notebook. We did not define words for China, and India
but you should know the words listed. There will be a few questions on Rome as
well so pay attention this week. Take the vocabulary out of your notebook and highlight
all words you are asked to review. If you do not have definitions or you have lost them
you will need to at least attempt to provide some definition work. If you do not have a
definition in your notebook then write one as a way to review. You may find the word in
your notes….you may also use your notes.
