We're studying Ancient Egypt and Ancient Greece with TruthQuest history this coming school year, so of course we'll be studying their geography as well. But to do that, I need a good, basic outline map of each country.
I thought I might be able to find what I was looking for on the outline map CD I already own, but I wasn't happy with any of the maps of Egypt or Greece. I also searched online and wasn't able to find exactly what I was looking for—most were too poor quality or had too much information on them.
So since I'm such a nerd with the computer I decided to make my own. How better to get a map exactly how I want it!
And I figured if I was looking for maps like these, others might like to use them to, so I've uploaded PDF maps of both Ancient Egypt and Ancient Greece for your use. I hope you enjoy!

Hi! I've just discovered your blog while looking for worksheet templates.
I'm from Bucharest, Romania and I teach English to some kids, and I often find myself making worksheets for them, but they look so un-inviting … I obviously use Word for them, and there's only so little I know to do with it. (I mean, I imagine that even in Word you could make some stunning looking worksheets…)…
My question and kind request was if you could tell me how you manage to make all your worksheets look so professional? Is there a software that could make my task easier or it's just your amazing skills and creativity?
I would really apreciate if you could give some hints about worksheet designing, and I am sure that lots of other people reading your blog will find this interesting.
Looking forward to reading on your blog, and thanks for all the wonderful things you share here!

Thank you so much for your maps of ancient Egypt and Greece. I teach Social Studies at a School for the Deaf and these are just great for two of my classes! Do you have any more good maps like these? I love the basic simplicity!
P.S. I homeschooled my kids through 12th grade before going back to work. Thanks again.

Thanks – just what I need! I'm preparing a high school co-op on Ancient History and Lit for missionary kids here in Honduras. So your kindness is spreading around the world.
Be encouraged, Suzanne

Awesome job, you should add ancient Rome because they are all taught (Egypt, Greece and Rome) as Ancient studies; just a thought.
