Introduction

 

This subdomain focuses on the ancient history from prehistory to the fall of the Western Roman Empire and is centered on Europe, northern Africa and Near and Middle East. Specific researches on European countries will be added later on. The Ancient history of Japan and China are located at the history section of the main domain.

 

Again, this site will contains summaries of existing works, essays on different subjects (art, religion....) and resources.
