answer these three short essay questions 
if you can consult the textbook ( Evans, Susan Toby: Ancient Mexico and Central America (Third Edition,
2013). Thames and Hudson, New York. [ISBN 978-0-500-29065-1]) or if you’d prefer my lectures slides i have those too 🙂  

Must be: 2000 WORDS, Times New Roman, Double Spaced, Research Paper, 
TOPIC:
You are responsible for choosing your own topic but please confirm with me before you turn in
your annotated bibliographies. Make sure that your paper (i) draws on archaeological evidence
and (ii) focuses on the period between the Bronze Age and Late Antiquity in the Mediterranean.
FINDING SOURCES:
You should use at least 5 sources for your research paper (not including texts read for this class).
These sources can be in the form of books, chapters of edited volumes and journal articles. There
are many useful search engines, such as JSTOR that can be accessed through the York University
Library website.
Be critical in evaluating the sources that you use-especially on the internet. The following sources
will not be counted towards your 5 required sources for your research paper:
i. Popular history/archaeology websites written by amateurs or published by nonacademic presses
ii. Encyclopedia and dictionaries (fine to reference in the early stages of research but
need to demonstrate deeper research than Wikipedia, Ancient History Encyclopedia)
iii. Personal websites or blogs
iv. Websites that come from a commercial institution (Khan Academy etc.)
Make sure to properly cite your sources. I recommend the Chicago Manual of Style as a reference
for formatting notes and bibliography.
