Reserved only for women, this is the most important job in the city— and one that Aristonike will soon have to take on if city council officials decide she meets their standards. Mark Robinson outlines a day in the life of an Oracle-in-training. (05:07)

This 1:34 video explains the Greek sanctuaries that
honor Asclepius, the Greek god of medicine and how
performing at the theater were ways the Greeks believed improved their health. This would make a good video for explaining how that being able to express yourself is believed to be helpful as well as a good video to show how health was a such concern to the Greeks. Would be a nice contrast/compare to television commercials for health products.

"'Decoration with small square stones'...the root of "mosaic" is the Medieval Latin "musaicum," meaning "work of the Muses,". Mosaics first appear in the eastern world, and can be traced to Chaldea, Syria and Byzantium. Mosaics are often associated with Roman and Greek homes and sacred art. This slideshow begins displaying columns from Chaldean architecture, dated from 2,000 BC, followed by Mosaic motif panels found in UR; thought to be the earliest known manifestation of mosaic. The images progress to the present day, demonstrating our fascination with this art form, the endless ideas, inspiration and uses for mosaic art throughout the ages". ~ the mosaic project 2009 (02:42)

A Platonic solid is a polyhedron whose faces are identical regular polygons. The ancient Greeks were able to show that there are exactly five such Platonic solids. This virtual manipulative allows you to display, rotate, and resize Platonic solids. It also allows you to select vertices, edges, and faces, and observe that the number of vertices minus the number of edges plus the number of faces is always equal to 2 (Euler's formula).
