Lights, Camera, Empire!

Introduction

Have you ever wanted to hobnob with Hollywood stars?  Did you ever wonder what it was like to be part of a big screen production?  Now is your chance.  Your group has been approached to make five cells of a documentary film for one of  the early empires of the world: Greece, Rome, Maya, Mali, or the Han. 

Who was Mansa Musa?  Where could merchants travel on the silk road? Why would an Athenian pray to Zeus?  What was expected of a Han scholar?  To where did Rome spread?  These questions and others need to be answered by your films.

The links below will lead you through the specific parts of the quest.
