One of the most sophisticated civilisations in the ancient world is Ancient Greece for kids. When we talk about Ancient Greece, we usually mean the years between 800 BC and 146 BC when there was a lot of cultural, social and scientific progress.
Ancient Greece is often called ‘the birthplace of Western Civilisation’, because we still follow a lot of its philosophy, architecture and culture today. Ancient Greek literature and poetry is still popular today; school children worldwide still study the vast range of Greek myths, which feature mythical monsters, heroes and Greek gods. The Olympic Games, which began in Greece in 776 BC as a religious festival dedicated to Zeus, took place every four years for over 1000 years!
The Ancient Greek period came to an end when it became part of the Roman Empire in 146 BC. However, the Romans respected the Greeks and they adopted several Greek gods as their own, as well as being influenced by Greek architecture and culture.

The Ancient Greeks worshipped many gods and goddesses. Many of the gods were part human, which meant they were not perfect!
Ancient Greece was not a united country with one king or leader. Instead, it was made up of lots of city-states, each with its own ruler.
Ancient Greece is famous for its mythology. Greek myths are stories that include magic and creatures, as well as the Greek gods and goddesses.
The Ancient Greeks built many impressive buildings, including temples, theatres and palaces. We still use many of the Ancient Greek designs and styles today.
