This website was made as a final project for HUM 595: Interdisciplinary Studies in the Humanities—Death. The website is designed as a self-guided tour for a general audience to learn about ancient Christianity, death, and its Mediterranean contexts. Whether a church group or an undergraduate class, the website offers succinct summaries of how death interrelates across the eastern Mediterranean, set against visual and material remains.
