By far the best course I have taken! I find something helpful with this course is to take not online tbh. What I would do was every time he talked about a certain artefact, I would copy and paste a picture of that artefact into the document and then write down the title, date, period and everything he said about that topic! This will make studying for the midterm and exam a lot easier because it helps you to associate the images with the facts. If you take this course before greek history it really helps you to understand the history and how important the art and architecture was at the time. 100% recomend.
