1. c)2. d)3. h)

4. a)5. f)6. b)

7. e)8. g)

Open answer. Some examples:• Common language. All Greeks felt that they belonged

to the same community because they all spoke Greek.• Balkan Peninsula. This is where the Greek civilisation

originated. • Maritime trade. This was the most important economic

activity because the sea was an enormous presence in this civilisation.

2. Listen to the audio recording and complete the following table in your notebook. Then write the date of the events.

Events Centuries

Minoan and Mycenaean civilisations

a) 1600 to 1100 BC

sword, greaves, a cuirass and a helmet.d) They protected their partners with the right-hand side

of their shield.e) They obtained important political rights in exchange

for their military help.f) Students must reach the conclusion that the hoplites

gained political power as they were aware of their military role to defend the poleis. They knew that they were necessary to guarantee the survival of the city. They also knew they had money to buy their own

military equipment, and that awareness gave them the power to claim their rights, especially their participation in political life.

4. Find information about the geographical environment of Greece and look closely at the map of Greek colonisation. Discuss the following questions with your partner and write your conclusions in your notebook.

a) Mount Olympus. It was very important for the Greek culture because the people thought that gods lived there.

9. Read the following text about the situation of women in Greece and answer the questions in your notebook:

a) Women didn’t participate in politics, they didn’t have property and they rarely participated in social or religious acts.

b) Gynaceums. c) They worked as peasants, sellers, midwives and

servants. d) No, they always had to obey a man: father, husband,

brother or another family member.e) Since the World Conference on Women in Beijing,

significant progress has been made, particularly in advancing women’s legal rights. However, as progress shows, in an era of unprecedented global wealth, millions of women around the world are trapped in low-paid, poor-quality jobs, denied even basic levels of healthcare, water and sanitation. Women still carry the burden of unpaid care work, which austerity policies and cuts have only intensified. To build fairer, more sustainable economies that work for both women and men, more of the same will not do. You can find more information at www.unwomen.org, where there are numerous studies about the situation of women in the world.

10. Read the following statements and write the corresponding questions in your notebook using the question words provided:

a) Who were excluded from democracy in Athens? b) Where was there an aristocratic government with

two kings? c) When were many poleis ruled by an oligarchy? d) Which economic activities were the most important

in Greece? e) Why was trade so developed in Greece?

11. Imagine that you are a member of one of the social groups who were excluded from democracy (women, slaves, foreigners). In your notebook, write a short paragraph giving some reasons why you should participate in the Athenian democracy as a citizen. Then read it out loud to your classmates.

Example:I am a woman. I don’t want to be excluded from democracy. I think I should participate in politics because I must be considered a citizen too. I work as hard as a man and I am a human being too, so I should have the same rights as men do. I want to elect the government and take part in the democratic institutions.

12. Look at the illustration and indicate the names of the different parts of the city. Then explain them in your own words in your notebook: acropolis, theatre, agora, wall, houses.

1. Wall: They were built of stone and protected the cities.

2. Houses: Places where the inhabitants of the city lived. 3. Agora: Public place where people met. It was also a

marketplace. 4. Theatre: Place where Greeks went to watch plays. 5. Acropolis: Highest point of the cities where the most

important temples were located.

13. Listen to the audio recording about democracy in Athens and copy the key words or ideas into your notebook. Then compare the words with your partner and try to rewrite the text with the notes that both of you have made.

• Athenian democracy was direct.• They voted by raising their hand and with black and

white stones.• The members of the institutions were elected by lot.• All citizens had the same rights and were equal in the

eyes of the law. • Gods influenced the lot.• Black and white beans were used in the lot.• A citizen could be banished for 10 years through

ostracism.

14. Listen to the descriptions of the following works of Greek art and write in your notebook which description matches each image.

1. e) Palace of Knossos.2. c) Kouros.3. a) Parthenon. Porch

Unit summary

` Greek civilisation developed in Hellas, and later, thanks to the colonisations, it spread to the rest of the Mediterranean and the Black Sea.

` Hellas was divided into independent political units called poleis or city-states. All the Greeks were conscious of belonging to the same culture and language.

` Greek society was divided into two main groups: citizens and soldiers (they had political rights and obligations); and non-citizens (they lacked political rights).

` The most outstanding political system was the Athenian democracy. The main institutions in Athens were the assembly, the magistrates, the restricted assembly and the public courts.

` In Sparta an aristocracy was maintained, led by two kings, aided by an assembly, a council of elders and five magistrates.

` Greek economy was based on dryland agriculture and livestock. Maritime trade was the most important activity.

` Greek architecture was adapted to the needs of the population. The main elements employed were columns.

` The Greeks created architectural styles: Doric, Ionic and Corinthian.

` The most important building was the temple.

` Greek sculptors concerned themselves with creating the beauty and harmony of the human body. They invented the canon.

` The Greeks were polytheistic and divided their universe into three orders: gods, heroes and mortals. They also paid great importance to the oracles. Greek culture is the birthplace of western civilisation.

d) The Greek world spread beyond the Mediterranean through colonisation.

e) The Greeks were conscious of sharing a common culture.

2. Read the following text and answer the questions:

Pericles’ speech

Our form of government is called a democracy. Its administration is in the hands of all the people and not just a few.

When solving private disputes, everyone is equal before the law. Election to public office is based on ability, not on membership of a particular class. No man is kept out of public office because of his low social standing or his poverty if he can be of service to the state.

In short, I say our city is a model for Greece to follow.

Text adapted from History of the Peloponnesian War by Thucydides.

a) Match each paragraph with its main idea:

1. The conclusion is in paragraph number .

2. The definition of democracy is in the paragraph.

3. The characteristics of democracy are mentioned in the paragraph.

b) What was the Athenian political system called?

c) Were all citizens considered equal before the law?

d) Could someone be kept out of public office because he was very poor?

e) Do you think Athenian democracy was as perfect as the text suggests? Why?

3. Complete this text in your notebook with the following words: coins, dryland, maritime, cereals, oil, colonies, metals, olive groves, sheep, domestic.

The Greeks practised farming, based on crops such as , vineyards and

. However, in general Greek soil was not of very good quality, so they had to develop other economic

activities in order to improve their economy: livestock (especially and goats), and, of course, trade,

which was also very important, especially trade, because most of the poleis had a port and exchanged

products with the and other states. trade inside the poleis was notable too because

craftsmen sold their products in the cities. The main goods sold by the Greeks were and crafts, and

they bought cereals and luxury products. To exchange these products they started to use .

5. Read this text about the Olympic Games and answer the questions below:

The first ancient Olympic Games can be traced back to 776 BC. They were dedicated to the Olympian gods and were held on the ancient plains of Olympia.

The tradition of the ‘Olympic Truce’ was established in ancient Greece in the ninth century BC. During this truce period, athletes, artists and their families were able to travel in complete safety to participate in or attend the Games. Messengers went from city to city to announce the date of the competitions and demanded the truce before, during and after the Games. At the modern Olympic Games, the first, second and third-placed athletes are awarded gold, silver and bronze medals, respectively. At the ancient Games there was only one winner whose prize was a laurel wreath or crown. The winner also received a red woollen ribbon and a palm frond. Although winners did not receive any financial reward, Olympic champions became important figures in their town or city. When Olympic champions returned from the Games, they were given a hero’s welcome and received numerous benefits for the rest of their lives.

Text adapted from the official website of the Olympic Movement www.olympic.org

``ANSWERS TO THE EXTRA ACTIVITIES

1.

a) The mountainous territory of Hellas facilitated the unification of the Greeks into a single state. False. The mountainous territory of Hellas complicated the unification of the Greeks into a single state.

b) Proximity to the sea helped to develop trade. True.c) The Greeks had different languages depending

on the polis. False. The Greeks had a common language.

d) The Greek world spread beyond the Mediterranean through colonisation. True.

e) The Greeks were conscious of sharing a common culture. True.

2.

a) 1. The conclusion is paragraph number 3. 2. The definition of democracy is in the first paragraph. 3. The characteristics of democracy are mentioned in

the second paragraph. b) The Athenian political system was called democracy. c) Yes, they were. They had the same rights and duties. d) No, because every citizen could have access to public

office if he was able to serve the state. e) Open answer: It wasn’t so perfect because the

majority of the population (women, foreigners and slaves) couldn’t participate in the political life of the poleis. Only men considered citizens could do this, so the system was unfair. However, at least a part of the citizens had political rights, something very unusual in that period.

3.

The Greeks practised dryland farming, based on crops such as cereals, vineyards and olive groves. However, in general Greek soil was not of very good quality, so they had to develop other economic activities in order to improve their economy: livestock (especially sheep and goats), and, of course, trade, which was also very important, especially maritime trade, because most of the poleis had a port and exchanged products with the colonies and other states. Domestic trade inside the poleis was notable too because craftsmen sold their products in the cities. The main goods sold by the Greeks were metals and crafts, and they bought cereals and luxury products. To exchange these products they started to use coins.

4.

Example: Athenian citizen: The best thing about my form of government is that every citizen can participate in democracy and they have

the same rights. The worst thing is that there are many people excluded from democracy. The advantages are that we can all participate in political life, discussing laws, helping to judge people… The disadvantages are that sometimes you don’t want to participate in the institutions, because you must give up your work and spend less time with your family. Besides, we often have problems to reach an agreement because there are a lot of people in the institutions. The aspect we should change is that democracy should include all the inhabitants in Athens: women, foreigners and slaves. The most useful institution is the Assembly because it makes the most important decisions. Spartan citizen: The best thing about my form of government is that citizens don’t have to worry about political decisions. They don’t have such a big responsibility. The worst thing is that we have to accept the decisions made by our governors, whether we agree with them or not.The advantages are that we can’t make a mistake when it comes to making a new law, or declaring war on other poleis, because it’s a decision that we can’t make. Only the governors make it, so we don’t have to worry about ethics or moral causes. The disadvantages are that sometimes you don’t agree with the decisions made by the government, but you have to accept them, including risking your life if you have to fight in a war. The aspect we should change is that oligarchy is not a fair form of government. We should count more on citizens when it comes to passing laws or to making any political decision. The most useful institution is the Gerousia because the elderly give good advice due to their experience.

5.

a) During the Games, the Olympic truce was established; consequently athletes, artists and their families were able to travel in complete safety to participate in or attend games.

b) They were held in Olympia. c) They were awarded a laurel wreath or a crown, and

they also received a red woollen ribbon and a palm frond.

e) They began to take place in 776 BC.

6.

d) Base.e) Pronaos.f) Naos.

}Track 00. Unit 10, activity 13, page 59. Listen and copy the key words or ideas.

Democracy in Athens was a direct form of democracy. Citizens could participate in meetings of the assembly, and they voted by raising their hand or using black and white stones. The members of the institutions were elected by lot, and only citizens could take part. The Athenians believed that this was the fairest and most democratic system because all citizens were equal in the eyes of the law and they all had the same rights. They also believed that the will of the gods influenced the result of the lot. Coloured beans were used in elections (black and white). A white bean meant that you had been elected and a black one meant that you hadn’t been elected. There was a curious custom known as ostracism, whereby citizens could decide to banish another citizen for 10 years if they thought he was dangerous.
