Module 3:

My name is Chelsea O'Toole, and I'm an Anthropology and History Major. At the moment, my preferred subfield is archaeology, but I may switch back to physical anthropology eventually. As far as specific focuses go, I don't really know at the moment. The topic that I chose for the wiki project was gender in the Aegean. I thought it might be interesting to look at how gender roles changed from the Minoans to classical Greece.

Anyway, I hope this is the right place to post this.

Module 4:

Here's a site on Minoan goddesses and the role of women in Minoan Society: [|Minoan goddesses]

Module 5:

Not too much specific information is known about the Minoan snake Goddess, but this figure was created around 1600 BCE. In Minoan society, there seemed to be far more female deities than male deities, and it is even thought that women were more likely than men to hold religious power and dominance.

Module 8: "The floodplains along the Nile constitute an important but as yet little utilized series of laboratories for the comparative study of the origins and interaction of ancient civilizations."
