This resource acts more as a scheme of work for the ‘Roman Kings’ unit of OCR’s GCSE Ancient History course. Owing to the very dense source material used within this unit, I have taken a much more guided approach with this topic and have foregone the usual lesson structuring to accommodate a more in depth analysis of the prescribed sources. As such, please use the official OCR GCSE Ancient History textbook for further guidance.
Resources includes:
The Legendary Kings
The Etruscan Kings
Origins of the Republic
Securing the Republic
