The field of Classics covers the languages and literatures of ancient Greece and Rome and their historical contexts. Chronologically, this is a wide field, extending from roughly the eighth century BCE (Before the Common Era) to the third or fourth century CE (Common Era). While the geographic center may be the Italian peninsula and Greece, the Mediterranean basin is also part of the field of study.
