The construction of incredible monuments, entire lands and individuals suddenly disappearing, and long wars fought with the intervention of mighty gods: the world we know today has been shaped by a series of incredible events, some wonderful, some tragic, and others downright mysterious.

 

This course, which takes place via live lessons on Zoom, invites you to become a historical investigator by putting together cryptic puzzle pieces in the hopes of unlocking some of the past's most closely guarded secrets.
