This software, by Scientific American, presents information in a narrative style about three ancient cities. There are mini-movies and pictures of different sites in the cities.
Maps are available as well as architectural and archaeological information.
The information and graphics are excellent and well-presented. There is a choice of having the narration read aloud or the sound turned off, and the user can choose the rate of presentation. The presentation was very clear, sequential, and appropriate for the middle school level and up. The cultural sensitivity was excellent. The CD is hybrid and loads and runs easily from a Windows or MacIntosh platform.
