I enjoyed the focus of this page... So many of the pages for survey courses seem to lack a central theme. I suspect that at some future time, a few "gateway" web pages will remain on-line and the bulk of the information will be very specialized. Students will enjoy a click on "Typologyy", a page that gives them the ability to to construct their own map by selecting up to three categories of typological data to overlay on a base map. They will need to download and view the Map Legend first or it will not make sense. The base map includes: the Tiber River, streams, springs, and contemporary city walls. They should aso generate a map showing how much of the ancient hydrological artifacts remain in the city today. These are clearly viewable in any trip to the city today. The rail line between the Airport and the city of Rome is lined in many places with the remains of an ancient aquaduct. " With Aquae Urbis Romae it is possible to study this complex urban system in both linear and lateral modes including: typologically (aqueducts, fountains, floods, sewers, etc.); topographically (the Roman Forum, the Velabrum, the Campus Martius, Trastevere, etc.); and chronologically from approximately 800 BC to the late 20th century. The study is based on completely new computer maps created especially for this project."
A VERY interesting page...but one that will require a guide constructed by the teacher for full benefits.

The Joys of Paris A recent visit to Paris (12/98) was a disappointment in one respect. The Louvre was closed because of a labor dispute for the entire week. The city also supplied a major surprise because the "alternative" was the Musee d' Orsay. The graphic to the right is a sample of one of the JPGs from the museum from the trusty digital camera. You might want to visit some of the current sites to browse some of the background on the converted rail station that is now a first-class museum in Paris. Eventually, a large number of select photos generated by the visit will be posted on this page.
