Crafts on the Ancient World — General Themes

The activities here could be used for several ancient world civilizations. For instance, we tend to think of the Romans when we introduce mosaics, but they actually were used by other cultures. And other entries are intended to include all of this early historical time period, so they are listed here for ease of reference!
