All of us owe a debt of gratitude to scholars who have come before us.
However for this course I am especially indebted to Lynn Nelson, Professor
Emeritus from Kansas University, for his advice and support.
Much of the web site itself and the online course content including many
essays, pronunciation and many
web pages comes from the important, pioneering and substantial efforts of
Dr. Ellis L. (Skip) Knox at Boise State University who graciously gave me
permission to access his site.
Many of the links come from Corey Likeness formerly at the University of
Calgary.
Maps come
from many sources. There are a number of maps from Tony Belmonte's Historical
Atlas of Europe and the Middle East. Unfortunately Tony has disappeared from the
web and I have not been able to track him down for permissions. My copies of
Belmone's maps were graciously provide by Lynn Nelson.
Right-clicking and checking properties will show the sources of many
objects.
