RESOURCES FOR BYZANTINE STUDIES


The following are some suggestions for resources to help you in the study of Byzantine civilization. Most of these are links to other sites, which provide valuable information and materials (both visual and textual). These listings are, of course, not meant to be exhaustive, but rather just a start in several good directions. Please make suggestions for additions to me at gregory.4@osu.edu.
