I taught history and geography at the secondary level in both the UK and the US for twelve years. I am interested in providing quality resources in British, Asian, and Modern European History.

Cultural History of India: A Chronology

(0)
This is a chronology in summary form of twenty of the key events in the cultural history of India with dates and key events from the last 4500 years. I think this resource is of use for a teacher's own research or to use as a student activity. At the end of the document there is a suggested activity where students can use the information to create a timeline of Indian cultural history. I have my students follow the directions as listed at the end of the chronology. The work in selecting and compiling this chronology is my own. My main research resource for this information was from India: A History by Hermann Kulke and Dietmar Rothermund. For areas of cultural history that I felt Kulke neglected, I also consulted A History of Asia, 5th edition by Rhoads Murphey.

This is a chronology in summary form of twenty-two of the key events in the cultural history of Japan with dates and key events from the last 5000 years. I think this resource is of use for a teacher's own research or to use as a student activity. At the end of the document there is a suggested activity where students can use the information to create a timeline of Japanese cultural history. I have my students follow the directions as listed at the end of the chronology. The work in selecting and compiling this chronology is my own. My main research resource for this information was from Morton and Olenik's book Japan: Its History and Culture.
