, Notes
Week 1: The Ancient Near East | Lecture 1.1: What is Ancient History
- Ancient history = world history (not European perspective, rather meridian
center) →geographical area
- Ancient history (= entire history of Afro-Eurasia) began with the introduction of
writing (3000 BC to ca. 650 AD)
- In Utrecht, the research focuses on the period from 500 BC to 500 AD
(Mediterranean, Middle East and Central Asia/India, see map below); themes
include →migration, religion, cities, empires, borders and cultural contact
- No clear boundaries, which interact with each other →cultural and social
exchange
- Many things (political, economic, religious, social and cultural) originated in
antiquity (ancient writing, complex forms of society, ideologies, etc.); modern
things are traced back →“Antiquity is the cultural foundation of modern
societies, from Western Europe to East Asia.”
- Globalization began in ancient times, with the emergence of cultural contact and
direct exchange between East Asia and the Mediterranean
- Antiquity has enormous influence on popular and high culture →most depicted
painting (and nowadays often in Young Adult books, read by the youth)
- National identity was often based on classical antiquity
- Silk Roads (modern term) connecting East and West, including the areas in
between →, perhaps military routes rather than trade routes
- The cities on the routes (see map below) are important, mainly through trade and
cultural contacts
