2014 Recipes With a Past

Enjoy our e-cookbook with delectable recipes from our Bon Appetit Wednesday! blog posts. Each recipe includes a brief explanation of the food’s ancient origins—with many surprises sure to tickle the imagination along with the palate.

New this year! AntiquityNOW has a variety of free content to supplement the classroom curricula, all organized by region/era and including fun facts, educational projects, videos, lessons and more showing how ancient lives continue to influence us today. Who knew the first computer was built more than 2,000 years ago in Greece? That bubble gum was discovered from 3,000 BCE in Finland? Or that the ballgame was created in Mesopotamia in 1400 BCE? We knew because at AntiquityNOW we love to make those eye-popping, jaw-dropping connections. As we like to say, “The past is not as distant as you may think.” Like what you see? Let us showcase your best ideas revealing how past and modern times intersect. Please go to “Submit Work.”

We’ve added more bookmarks, including for the two projects above, to download for you archaeologists, teachers, students, cultural preservationists, puzzle aficionados, Trivial Pursuit enthusiasts and historical gadflies everywhere.
