If you are interested in archaeology & ancient cultures, then you will probably love this subject as much as I do. There are a variety of cultures that are studied including ancient Egypt, Mesopotamia, Mycenaean culture & Minoan culture. The lecturers are pretty good, the standout was Anna Stevens for Egypt. The assessments were pretty standard, there are online quizzes throughout the semester, an annotated bibliography, a major essay and an online exam. There are weekly lectures + online video modules which help to increase your knowledge in certain areas. However the readings were often really long and not very interesting. Highly recommend this unit !

The content matter was usually interesting however the unit was poorly organised and readings were often boring.
