Vatican Exhibit -- Rome Reborn

http://www.ncsa.uiuc.edu/SDG/Experimental/vatican.exhibit/Vatican.exhibit.html

This educational and colorful site traces the journey of Rome from the 14th century, when the great city dwindled to a miserable village, to its rise from the ruins during the Renaissance to become one of the grandest cities in the world. Each section in the exhibition's home page is accompanied by a historical overview and photographs of important documents. Users can visit different exhibit 'rooms' devoted to different topics including the Vatican library, archaeology, humanism, mathematics, music, and more. You can also choose to browse through the object index and see slides of music scores and math books.
