AncientSites, a unique Internet community, offers 3D games, quizzes, and virtual walking tours to
students, teachers and history buffs around the world. Visitors can explore digital
reconstructions of Rome, Athens, and Egypt and share their interests with a worldwide
online community of ancient history fans through chat rooms, bulletin boards, and free

The Library of Congress, the modern version of the library of Alexandria, provides a large
number of places to look for texts from the ancient world.
For those without access to a university's classical library, the
Loeb Classical Library from Harvard University Press is the best way to own the classics to
translate and read for yourself. The Loeb format is excellent for beginning translators,
with the ancient Latin or Greek on the left page, and a scholar's English translation on
the right. The Loeb's Home page provides excellent guides that break down their library by
author, subject, and volume number.
Ancient World Web
The Ancient World Web is an large index of internet
listings containing Web sites, institutions, and organizations, about the ancient world.
The site contains a Meta Index as well as indexes based on geographical region and topics.
It also contains links to the popular search engines. It is a good first place to look if
you know your subject is during the ancient times (before 1000 C.E.). However the site is
updated irregularly, so brand new topics and sites may not be available there.
