We are proud to add “Cunieform” and “The Rise and Fall of Athens” to our online courses.


Cunieform
This course teaches the basics of Cuneiform and advances to look at a number of key texts including fragments of the Epic of Gilgamesh, various letters, inscriptions and spells.  Being able to decipher these key texts opens a window into a world of political and social order and unrest, wars and treaties; relationships with the gods and the day to day musings of the ancient Near East.

Westgate Quiz #3 Goes from Strength to Strength!

What a great night at the Westgate Quiz! Six teams all vying for the main cash prize and the competition could not be closer. Just a small matter of three points between first and second, all down to some key strategic playing of the Joker and cleaning up on the static table rounds.

A fantastic night replete with humour, music and laughter along with some devilish brain teasing questions. Thank you to all who came and we look forward to seeing you all again next month with the Westgate Quiz #4! 29th April 2019.
