Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What was childhood like in ancient Greece? What activities and games did Greek children embrace? How were they schooled and what religious and ceremonial rites of passage were key to their development? These fascinating questions and many more are answered in this groundbreaking book--the first English-language study to feature and discuss imagery and artifacts relating to childhood in ancient Greece.Coming of Age in Ancient Greece shows that the Greeks were the first culture to represent children and their activities naturalistically in their art. Here we learn about depictions of children in myth as well as life, from infancy to adolescence. This beautifully illustrated book features such archaeological artifacts as toys and gaming pieces alongside images of them in use by children on ancient vases, coins, terracotta figurines, bronze and stone sculpture, and marble grave monuments. Essays by eminent scholars in the fields of Greek social history, literature, archaeology, anthropology, and art history discuss a wide range of topics, including the burgeoning role of childhood studies in interdisciplinary studies; the status of children in Greek culture; the evolution of attitudes toward children from the Bronze Age to the Hellenistic period as documented by literature and art; the relationships of fathers and sons and mothers and daughters; and the roles of cult practice and death in a child's existence.This delightful book illuminates what is most universal and specific about childhood in ancient Greece and examines childhood's effects on Greek life and culture, the foundation on which Western civilization has been based.

They also invented pottery and other materials that are used today. The Greeks called themselves Hellens and their land Greece. Here are a few interesting facts about Ancient Greece for kids.The Greeks called their country Hellas, not Greece. They called it Hellada or Hellas. A common greeting in the modern world is shaking hands. The first historical reference to the yo-yo dates back to around 440 B.C. and is a popular game for young people. In ancient Greece, girls typically married at thirteen or fourteen years old. Until the Myceneans conquered Crete, there were no toilet papers.The ancient Greeks had animals such as dogs and cats. They also had a very complex system of justice. In fact, the Romans copied Greek culture so completely that they even renamed the Greek gods. One third of the people living in the city-states of Ancient Greece were slaves. In the city of Athens, there were law trials that involved more than 500 citizens as jurors. In the U.S., the jury size is a mere twelve.
