Anno Domini
In the year of our Lord

B.C.
Before Christ

The accounting of time revolves around the birth of Christ.  This makes a study of history especially interesting because all of history points to this; the most important event for a Christian.  Our family begins this study in Mesopotamia.  We are following the model set forth in The Well Trained Mind by Susan Bauer and Jessie Wise.  We are using these webpages to share with you the things we learn and to point you to the resources to do a study of this kind.  The children have created their own webpages showing their projects and making materials for other children to enjoy as they peruse this site.  The annotated bibiliography lists the resources I have used.
