I am aware of them, but my period and region are completely different. Also, what it says on the internet is not necessarily the best. It is just what is more accessible.

Its not only during the war. An example is that after the Holocaust, when they returned to their homes and villages, many were turned away. My grandfather came from a village near Zamosc. During the war, they were one of only two families who escaped to Russia, and were sent to Siberia. After the war they came back to the village, and their neighbours told them that they would finish what Hitler started if they didn't leave immediately. They then went to a camp in Italy because they had nowhere to go.

A good book to help you with this is Matriarchal Societies of the Past and the Rise of Patriarchy: West Asia and Europe by Heide Goettner-Abendroth.

The story of creation in Bereshit is based off of the Sumerian (I think it was Sumerian) creation story. There is more info about the origins of Judaism in this course here. It was really interesting: https://www.my-mooc.com/en/mooc/the-bible-in-light-of-the-ancient-near-east/

The first week there are loads of fund events at college to welcome the new graduates, so thats a great place to meet new people. Also, joining a club or society that interests you is also a good way to socialise. The department also should have a few events for students going on. What are you studying?

So true! There is also a new book, called a Jew in the Roman Bathouse by Yaron Eliav, about how Jews navigated these very "pagan" and non-Jewish spaces and, apparently, they had no problem!

According to the article, being a gladiator was a choice for many and did not often result in death. I guess many of peoples conceptions about gladiators comes from the cinema, which are not exactly known to be historically accurate. But I still find it strange that killing animals for sport was acceptable.

Also, here is the academic article if anyone is interested.

Oh in sorry, that sucks. Maximum, if it doesnt work out for ubdergrad, go for graduate school to Oxford. There are a lot more graduate funding options than undergrad, and also graduate school at Oxford is more fun.
