About the Course

Discover the mighty kingdom of Assyria, which came to be the world’s first great empire three thousand years ago. From the 9th to the 7th
centuries BC, during the imperial phase of Assyria’s long history, modern day northern Iraq was the central region of a state reaching from the
Mediterranean Sea to the Persian Gulf, and incorporating what is now Iraq, Syria, and Lebanon, as well as half of Israel, and wide parts of

The variety of presentations of a vast amount of knowledge made it engaging. Dr. Radner herself was engaging! The course provided a deep look into a civilization that is a bedrock to the modern world.

A great introduction to the Assyrian empire. But no certificate is provided despite completion of all the quizzes and assignments.

It started off well, but then gets muddled

I think this could be a good interesting course. It started out great with a good introduction by professor Sijpesteijn.

While understandable, it could have just been a single page with an "optional" list of "university promo and how-to" links.

El curso esta bien pero para los alumnos que no hablamos ingles , esta muy mal, las traducciones no son buenas , y sobre todo los cuestionarios es dificilisimo contestar si no esta bien traducido , hay que estar siempre pegado al traductor de google , o al que sea para poder contestar alguna pregunta . Deberian solucionar esto
