Timeline
A timeline comes bound in the Ancient History Portfolio ready to be removed and easily assembled. The assembled timeline measures approximately 11" x 47" and is printed on card stock. The Ancient Timeline is divided into continents, and further into separate strands for each culture spanning the time between 5000 B.C. and 600 A.D. The "Important Dates and Events" reference section of the Portfolio is very useful for filling in the timeline. The dates provided cover the time from about 3500 B.C. (Sumerians) to 476 A.D. (Fall of Rome). |
