Creating the Timeline of the Ancient Middle East

On Wednesday 7th, Sept. we corrected our date sheet that we gathered last time and then spent the remainder of the class completing the actual creation of the timeline. If you were absent, you will need to do the following to make up what you missed:

1) Using the worksheet from last time, go on to complete Steps 2 and 3. You should have already completed Step 1 and collected the dates  In order to move on to step 2 you will need two blank pieces of unlined paper. Then do the following:

- draw a line down the middle of each paper and on the line evenly space 15 hashmarks (you should have a total of 30 hashmarks when you have done both pieces of paper.)
- Each hashmark represents 100 years. On the first hashmark (the one on the far left) label it 3100 BCE, then label each hashmark counting down by 100. You should end with 200 BCE as your last hashmark.
- Then follow the instructions on the back of the worksheet for Steps 2 & 3.

If you need the worksheet again, here it is:
