 Ancient scripts of the world
 A BBC online library of ancient history

----------------------------------------

While not a comprehensive type of work, this is a resource that will lead
its users to some very valuable and interesting resources in science,
technology and beyond for the topical areas in which coverage is provided.
This is not the type of source one would turn to for a specific answer to
a question as its coverage is eclectic and porous. Rather, one browses
here and finds useful and enticing places to learn and perhaps topics that
one would not readily think about in subject specific link listings.
There is also much here that will help to build the background knowledge
for science and science fiction writers.
