Byzantine and Frankish Styles (Lesson Plan)

This lesson highlights the Byzantine and Frankish periods using evidence uncovered in recent excavations in Ancient Corinth.

Images and videos of excavations are used to challenge students to create interpretations for finds that illuminate economic and social interactions.

Population interactions and diversity at the time of the Fourth Crusade are investigated through evidence gathered from imported and locally produced types of ceramic vessels.

Comprehensive lesson plans and accompanying PowerPoints are available here.
