Compose a text (entirely in your own words) that is historically accurate, full of interesting detail, grammatically correct, and no longer than 150 words, The focus of your marker should be on the time period covered in the course (before 1500 CE and as indicated in the assignment).
Text of the marker. Required elements are a brief description of the historical site/object (remember that marker readers are generally able to see the site, so keep this to a sentence and/or focus on things not necessarily visible), historical context (what was going on in that place generally, such as religious movement, establishment of an empire, etc.), specific historical details relevant to the site, and historical significance.
