Family life was very important to Ancient Greeks. The classical period in ancient Greece was a golden age. It was a time of prosperity. Greek learning and culture were all a part of everyday life. Ancient Greece was the home of philosophy, democracy and the Olympic Games. The ancient Greeks developed a whole civilisation which has helped to shape modern day Europe. The book explains the work of archaeologists, who have found many treasures which give us clues about what life was like for families in Ancient Greece.
