WikiProject Antiquity
Aim and scope

The WikiProject Antiquity aims to gather all contributors working in an aspect or another of Antiquity, including its reception and study.

Historically, the term 'Antiquity' has been used to cover the period from around 3000 BC to around 500 AD in the regions of the ancient Mediterranean and the Near East, i.e. from the invention of writing in the Mesopotamian region to the collapse of the Roman empire. Nowadays, the end-limit is pushed forward and includes as well the following centuries and the states that were the successors of the Roman Empire. It is within this space-time framework that the heart of this project lies, but we welcome contributors working on other areas with similar timeframe.

With such a wide scope, we are active in a number of areas, including but not limited to:
