The
Perseus Project. |

The
Perseus Project is the premier scholarly website for studying
antiquity. The online version contains images,
texts, dictionaries — all of it well organized and fairly
quick to access.
Furthermore,
the CD-ROM version of Perseus, which contains even more information
than its online counterpart, is available over the local Skidmore
network. Ask Professor Curley how to gain access to
this resource!
