Conclusion
Thank you for the time and effort you put into this project. Hopefully by the end of it, you will have gained some appreciation for the work that was done in Ancient Greece. You will also have learned some new things that maybe you previosly hadnt known about a new culture. Just think, if you dont know how to do a math problem, you have Google and a calculator they didnt! You have it easy now! We hope you thought this project was fun and interesting.
