Join me tomorrow when I interview two of the students behind the amazing exhibit at the Institute for the Study of Ancient Cultures! If you have any questions on the mechanics of creating an exhibit, be sure to drop them below :)
How did school work in ancient Mesopotamia? Why did people go to school, and how do we know what they learned about? The Institute for the Study of Ancient Cultures at the University of Chicago amazing exhibition, "Back to School in Babylonia", explores this very topic, and we're lucky to have two of the students who worked on the exhibition with us for this livestream to answer your questions!
