The Greeks built an empire that laid the foundations for modern science, politics, warfare and philosophy, and produced some of the most breathtaking art and architecture the world has ever seen. This documentary, narrated by Liam Neeson, recounts the rise, glory, demise and legacy of the empire that marked the dawn of Western civilization. Using the latest advances in computer technology, the story of this astonishing civilization is told through the lives of the heroes of ancient Greece. It combines dramatic storytelling, stunning imagery, groundbreaking research and distinguished scholarship to render classical Greece gloriously alive.
I teach Greek history to an advanced humanities class of 6th graders.
This is one video we watch . . . it is very well done and the students seem to be very engaged with the content.

The voiceover sounds like Liam Neeson. I feel like he going to say at any moment: "I don't know who you are, but if you don't let my daughter go I will find you. I will kill you." (quote from Taken).
Good video! Thanks.
