This course surveys the art and architecture of the early medieval period in Europe and the Mediterranean. This era opens with the advent of Christianity, and explores topics such as early Christian catacombs, the Book of Kells, and the art of the Migrant Peoples such as the Vikings. We will look at a richly diverse range of material created in places from Syria to Ireland in order to consider basic questions about the philosophy and theology of art, the social context of art and the analysis of gender and class in visual culture.

Now's the time to revisit your text and refine your work. You may do more research and find missing information; rewrite the lead section to represent all major points; reorganize the text to communicate the information better; or add images and other media.
Continue to expand and improve your work, and format your article to match Wikipedia's tone and standards. Remember to contact your Wikipedia Expert at any time if you need further help!
It's the final week to develop your article.
Everyone should have finished all of the work they'll do on Wikipedia, and be ready for grading.
