8. THE NATURAL ENVRIONMENT
Ancient Greece was formed of the Balkan Peninsulas, the Peloponese and many islands in the Eastern of
the Mediterranean as Crete, the Cyclades, Paros, Delos, Mykanos,etc.
Greece had a privileged position in Asia(Mesopotamia), Africa (Egypt) and the rest of Europe.
The close proximity of the sea and mountains had a decisive influence on it history. On the one hand, it
contributed to the isolation and independence of Greek cities, which never united in one state.
On the other, because it was easier for the Greeks to get the products they needed from other places on the
Mediterranean, they made many sea voyages.
Greek culture spread along the Mediterranean coast (Europe, Africa and Asia) and many people consider it
to be the origin of Western civilization.
LIFE IN ANCIENTS CITY STATES
In the centre of Ancient Greek cities was an acropolis (a religious space, at the highest part of the city which
was fortified shelter the people in times of danger) and the agora.
THE ECONOMY
Agriculture was very important , although there wasn´t a lot of cultivated land. Vines and olives were the
main crops. People also kept livestock (sheep, goats, pigs, donkeys) and many Greeks made crafts
(metalwork and leather work, pottery, textiles and perfume).
Farmers and artisans usually sold their products directly in the market. There was sea trade with the
colonies .The city states received a large income because they charged a tax for the goods treatments
through their forts. They used silver coins for payment.

9. RELIGION AND CULTURE
The Greeks believed in many gods.
According to Greek mythology, the gods live on Mount Olympus and, like
humans, had they virtues, defects and needs. But they were also inmortal
and had supernatural powers. The Greeks also believed in heroes.
They made offerings and animal sacrifices to the gods to show their
adoration and ensure their protection. The temple was the house of the
gods and not ameeting place for faithful.
Religious ceremonies usually took place in the home.
The Olympic Games were held every 4 years in honour of Zeus.
The Greeks believed in oracles.They believed they could predict the future
trough them.
The messages were transmitted via signs that only priets cold interpret.
The priests observed the flight of birds, animal intestines, and other
phenomena and elements for potential ,essages from the gods. The
messages expressed he will of the gods so, if you didn´t follow their advice,
you could lose their protection and bad things could happen to you.
