Cultural Anthropology of Mayans, Aztecs and Incas

Before Columbus sailed in 1492, civilizations thrived in what was to become the Americas. This six week class covers the art, traditions, politics, literature and more from pre-Columbian Central and North America. With two weeks on each culture, we'll spend time:

• Writing plays
• Composing advertisements
• Re-writing the outcome of history
• Staging a mock trial of one of history's most maligned figures
• Creating mummies and head dresses
• Building a suspension bridge
• and playing games America's original occupants would have played

We'll be doing Internet research, so while a laptop or netbook isn't required, it will be helpful to have a wireless-enabled device for the class.

Classes are held Tuesdays from 10am - 11:30am.

All materials are provided.

Cost is $70. Multi-child families are just $60 per child.

Classes are held in West Los Angeles, near the intersection of the 405 and 10 freeways.
