Average Rating:

Rating:
- pretty much a surface guide to ancient cultures
Someone watching these may think that they have an idea of the history involved, but this script line is the approved version in most cases.
The Archeology isn't covered as well as it probably should be.
I liked the style in any case with expert cameos.
Rating:
- A must have for every teacher
I have used this series for years (on VHS).Now, the tapes are wearing out.I didn't hesitate to purchase on DVD.
Rating:
- Just an overview
This is a good documentary on ancient civilizations. I bought it with the assumption that it would cover the general history of each civilization but it shows more of the way of life of these peoples instead of chronologically ordered history. If you are want to learn about history then I would advise a different documentary.
Rating:
- A tour of history
This is a great set. You not only see the wonderful sights of these countries but you are learning as well. Great for the whole family.

- Great for History Classes
This DVD set is truly a great treasure a world history class. I really wanted a DVD set which covered all the ancient civilizations and this set does that superbly. The only ancient civilization it doesn't cover is Ancient Japan. Each 50 minute segment covers the culture, history and religion of an area but with a specific investigative perspective. This DVD set is very informative and interesting.
