'''Classical Antiquity''' is a time period extending from roughly 800BC (approx. date of [[Homer]]'s first writings) to 500AD (approx. date of the fall of the [[Roman Empire]]). Classical Antiquity is generally considered to encompass the periods when the [[Greco-Roman]] culture was dominant around the [[Mediterranean Sea]].
