Also in Greece there is one autonomous region - Aion Oros (Holy Mountain) in the region of Mount Athos. This is a monastic state, which is governed by a council of representatives of 20 Athos monasteries. Real self-government exists at the level of nomes and smaller formations - municipalities. The municipality is headed by the mayor, and the nome is headed by the governor.

ISLANDS Greece has over 2,000 islands. They account for about 20% of the entire Greek territory.

The highest point in Greece is Mount Olympus (2917 m). Pindus, Parnassus, the mountain range of Central Greece and Taygetos also rise above 2000 meters. There are few plains, they are concentrated in the eastern half of the country, with the exception of the Peloponnese, where the plains prevail on the western coast. THE MOUNTAINS

According to one of the myths, during the reign of King Minos, a huge palace was built on the island of Crete with an intricate system of rooms and corridors, the way out of which was very problematic... In Greece, on the Peloponnese peninsula, in an area called Elis, there is a town called Olympia. Once he gave the world the Olympic Games and one of the seven wonders of the world from antiquity - a statue of Zeus by the sculptor Phidias. It was on the stage of the theater of Dionysus that the tragedies of Aeschylus, Sophocles, Euripides, the comedies of Aristophanes and Menander were first shown.

About what country in question?

So our new topic“Ancient Greece. Greeks and Cretans.”/notebook entry/slide 1.

By considering what questions, in your opinion, it is necessary to begin the study of this country?

The main questions that we will consider are reflected in the lesson plan.Slide 2.

    Ancient Crete.

    Natural conditions of Ancient Greece.

    The myth of Theseus and the Minotaur.

    The death of the Cretan kingdom.

So, let's go on an interesting journey by ship and get to know ancient Greece better.slide 3

    Work with the educational card. slide 4.

At the turn of the III-II millennia, Greek tribes settled in the northeastern Mediterranean.

At the end of the 2nd millennium, they mixed with the tribes that invaded from the north.

In the south of the Balkan Peninsula, which is washed on three sides by the waters of the Aegean Sea and the Ionian Sea, Greek tribes lived. They called their country Hellas, and they called themselves Hellenes. Later, the country began to be called Greece, and its inhabitants Greeks. The Balkan Mountains divide the country into three large regions: Northern, Middle and Southern.

In those distant times, independent cities existed in Greece.

Mycenae - (ancient capital), Athens - (modern capital), Tirnif, Pylos.

    Working with a contour map.

1. Inscribe the name of the seas washing the Balkan Peninsula.

2. Inscribe the name of the cities indicated by numbers.

    Teacher's story. Slide 5 .

1) The most important natural feature Greece isthat from the west, east and south it is surrounded by the sea, from the east by the Aegean, from the west by the Ionian, from the south by the Cretan. There are many islands on the seas (the island of Euboea, the island of Delos. O. Salamis), the largest of them is the island of Crete. In the life of the ancient Greeks, the sea played a huge role. In many places along the coast, the sea goes deep into the land, forming bays and convenient bays. Even as children, the Greeks learned to swim, row, set sail. The Greeks were considered a sea people who knew how to build ships. In ancient times, the Greeks sailed along the coast, avoiding going out into the open sea. There were reasons for this: firstly, storms and tempests were dangerous for wooden ships; secondly, without a compass, which was known only to the Chinese, it was easy to get lost; thirdly, it was constantly necessary to replenish water and food supplies.

2) Another important feature of the nature of Greece is thatit is a mountainous country. Mountains cover a significant part of Greece, so there is little land suitable for arable farming and pastures. mountain ranges criss-cross the country. The highest mountain is Olympus.

Like any country where there are mountains, Greece is rich in minerals. These are copper, iron, silver ores, large reserves of good clay, various types of stone.

There were few forests in Greece, the rocky slopes of the mountains were bare or covered with shrubs and undersized trees with twisted trunks. Such a forest was not suitable for buildings.

3) the third feature of the nature of Greece is that hereno full-flowing rivers like the Nile, Euphrates or Indus. When the snow melts in the mountains in March, the rivers overflow and bubble. But already in May the rivers become shallow. And in July there is a strong heat up to + 40 ˚ (in the shade), when the grass burns out, the slopes of the mountains acquire a yellowish tint.

How did nature influence the occupations of the population?

So what conclusion can we draw?

Conclusion: the nature of Greece is different from the nature of the countries ancient East. Greece is a country of mountains and sea, therefore, since ancient times, crafts, navigation, fishing, salt extraction from sea ​​water. Maritime trade. Due to the poor soils in Greece, there was not enough bread, fodder for livestock, which is why small cattle prevailed in the country and pigs were bred.

    The teacher's story with elements of conversation. Slide 6 .

The first stop we will make is the island of Crete. The very first state in Europe was formed on the island of Crete when the most ancient cities arose in the Indus Valley.

Remember when it was?

    Student reports about Crete.

Crete is an island in the eastern part of the Mediterranean Sea, stretching from west to east for more than 200 km. Most of the island is occupied by mountains. In the northern part, the mountains smoothly turn into a plain, and the coast has many bays and bays, convenient for entry and parking of ships. The life of the Cretans depended on the sea: fields suitable for Agriculture there were few. Livelihood was provided by fishing and maritime trade. The power of Crete was based on the strength of its fleet. The cities of Crete were not surrounded by walls - its walls were ships.

Also a hundred years ago, archaeologists began excavations on the island. Near ancient city Knossos they unearthed a huge palace. Like a fabulous Labyrinth, the palace had hundreds of rooms, corridors, stairways and descents. There were few windows: sunlight and air entered through light wells - openings on the roof. It saved from the sweltering heat in summer and cold winds in winter. The walls of the palace were decorated with paintings. One of them depicts games with a bull, which was revered as a sacred animal in Crete.With laye 7.

Ancient Greek poet Homer the island of Crete in the poem "Odyssey".

There is such a country in the middle - the colored sea,

Crete is beautiful, rich, washed by waves from everywhere,

There are ninety cities in it, and people, so there are no counts ...

Knossos is among all the cities the greatest in Crete.

The wise Minos reigned in it for nine years ...

    Work with the textbook (students take turns reading the text of the textbook "The Myth of Theseus and the Minotaur") slide 8.

For. To continue the study of the topic, remember what is a myth?

Myth is a fantastic story about gods and heroes. .

The myths of ancient Greece were passed from mouth to mouth, from one generation to another. At present, we can recognize them from the works of the ancient Greek poets Homer, Aeschylus, Sophocles. One of the most famous myths dedicated to Crete was the myth of Theseus and the Minotaur.

    Teacher's story. slide 9.

The death of the Cretan kingdom.

In the 15th century BC. On the island of Thera, north of Crete, an earthquake and volcanic eruption occurred. Monstrous waves and clouds of ash hit Crete. After the catastrophe, the Greeks began to move to the depopulated island.
