INTRODUCTION

Welcome to your textbook for OCR GCSE Ancient History.

This book has been created to support the Roman half of the new OCR GCSE (91) specification. It contains the Longer Period Study The Foundations of Rome: from Kingship to Republic, 753440 BC and you will study this chapter followed by a choice of one out of the three Depth Studies: Hannibal and the Second Punic War, 218201 BC, Cleopatra: Rome and Egypt, 6930 BC and Britannia: from Conquest to Province, AD 43c. 84.

Through your reading of this textbook and your wider study in class, you will be able to gain a broad understanding of military, political, religious, social and cultural aspects of the history of the ancient world. You will read and analyse ancient source material, and study certain debates by modern scholars related to this material. This will enable you to develop the skills to formulate coherent arguments about key issues and concepts.

The specification requires you to respond to the prescribed source material and assess its content through analysis and evaluation. The box features (see pp. viiiix) are designed to build up your skills and knowledge, while exam tips, practice questions, and chapters on assessment will prepare you for taking your final examinations.

A Companion Website, available at www.bloomsbury.com/anc-hist-gcse, supports this textbook with further information, resources and updates. If you have any suggestions for improvement and additional resources please get in touch by writing to contact@bloomsbury.com

HOW TO USE THIS BOOK

The layout design and box features of this book are designed to aid your learning.

COLOUR

The colour blue is used to highlight prescribed source quotations, box features that focus on assessment preparation and exam skills.

ICONS

The Prescribed Source icon flags a quotation or image that is a source prescribed in the specification.

The Stretch and Challenge icon indicates that an exercise extends beyond the core content of the specification.

The Companion Website icon highlights where extra material can be found on the Bloomsbury Companion Website www.bloomsbury.com/anc-hist-gcse.

BOX FEATURES

In the margins you will find feature boxes giving short factfiles of key events, individuals and places.

Other features either recommend teaching material or highlight prescribed content and assessment tips and information.

Recommended teaching material is found in the following box features:

Activities

Debates

Further Reading

Modern Parallels

Study Questions

Topic Reviews

Prescribed content and assessment-focused tips and information are found in the following box features:

Exam Overviews

Exam Tips

Practice Questions

Prescribed Sources

Material that extends beyond the specification is found in the Stretch and Challenge box features. Remember that the specification requires students to study extra sources and material not listed in the specification, so S&C information and exercises will provide a good place for you to start.

A NOTE ON QUESTIONS

Discussion prompts found in Topic Review boxes and Study Question boxes are not worded in the form you will find on the exam papers. They are intended to encourage investigation and revision of the material, but do not reflect the questions you will answer in the exam. Practice Questions at the end of each topic, and the questions found in the What to Expect in the Exam chapters do mirror the format and wording you will encounter in the exam.

GLOSSARY

At the back of the book you will find a full glossary of key words. These words are also defined on pages in margin features.

Spellings of names and texts are formatted in line with the OCR specification.

On the Companion Website you will find a colour-coded glossary that highlights which components the words come from.

IMAGES

Illustrations give you the opportunity to see the ancient visual material you are required to study. Images of the prescribed visual/material sources are flagged with the icon, but other images illustrate other relevant aspects of the ancient world. Often what survives from the ancient world does not provide us with ways to illustrate what we study. Thus, art, drawings and reconstructions from later periods and the modern day may be used to illustrate this book. Dont forget that these are not sources like your prescribed texts and visual material they are later interpretations of aspects of antiquity and do not represent evidence for analysis.
