For my next school assignment I’m creating an argument that relates to the Ptolemaic period. It could be anything, where be it culture, economy, religion, pharaonic power or whatever. As long as it’s Egypt from 305 - 30 BC.
I’m struggling to find any points of contention worth pursuing and wondering if anyone had any ideas. Thank you :)
Hi - we as mods have approved this thread, because while this is a homework question, it is asking for clarification or resources, rather than the answer itself, which is fine according to our rules. This policy is further explained in this Rules Roundtable thread and this META Thread.
