Yeah heh i always preferred history too, but it's a subjective thing, there are some that say history is too based on ideas without proof compared to archaeology *shrug*. and yes of course it talks about what the objects mean, theres no use in finding them and then not analysing what they can...

There are several different lecturers, depending on their field of expertise. The first year ancient history subject has changed a lot since I did it back in 2006, but I can tell you that most of the ancient history department lecturers are hillarious. However, you cant really compare the two...

hi i did this subject in 2008 and unless they've changed it drastically, it is based on childe's list of what qualifies as a civilisation (im sure you can google this and find the list, i dont remember it now). we studied egypt, sumeria, greece/rome, indus valley, bmac, and central and south...

there's only 30 places a year in that degree (so i've heard), so unlikely you'll get in first time around if you get good enough marks, you can transfer after one year of arts - that's what i did

haha yea he does, it's called Jeff Tatum is Caesar fitting title

another vote for Jeff Tatum

higher uai means there's just less spaces and more people who want to do the degree.......

yea then you could do a masters of museum studies (or diploma or graduate certificate, whichever you prefer) that would set you up for that sort of career

I think art history people also often go to work at art galleries as well

wow it's only late republic to augustus now? back in 2006 this course covered gracchi to caligula just had jeff tatum for the second year course he taught - great lecturer, will certainly keep you entertained
