Hi All,



I am seeking inspiration for a new program that I am developing using archaeological or ethnological examples.  There are 2 sets of classes.  One is a one hour program, the other is 2 1/2 hours long.  In both, the children are divided by age groups of 4th-6th grade, and 7th through 9th grades.  



I want unusual (to our children) media, and I prefer subjects that communicate through alphabets or symbolism, rather than are simply decorative.  As examples, I'm considering Peruvian quipus, and Hohokam shell etching.

 

So, have you ever admired a beautiful or unique communication from the past - anywhere in the world - that you think would be cool for children to be exposed to?
