Hi!

I've provisionally added a couple of footnotes but can delete them if you want.

Great footnotes, thanks! I didn't know the thing about Napoleon, very intersting.

Gave the Entry another read-through. I noticed a verb is missing in this sentence (Classic period 1st paragraph last sentence):
The WAS city under the reign of Pericles from 443 to 429 BC, his death brought riots and Sparta defeated Athens in a struggle for supremacy in the area.
(otherwise re-structure the sentence somehow)

I've tweaked that sentence so hopefully it reads better now.

thanks

Noticed something else:
also section about the Classic Period, 4th Paragraph
'The sculptors Phidias created the 12-metre-tall Zeus statue in Olympia2, Polyklet created bronze statues as well as a script about perfect male proportions and Praxiteles created...'
I think 'sculptor' should be singular here?

Okay, I've changed that sentence.

Thank you!

Do you have any further comments? Can you have a thorough read-through and let me know if you think it is ready to go on its way?

Very last paragraph:
'The Greek antiquity should inspire many later periods. '
As far as I remember I was told 'should' cannot be use like in German at this place. Also 'the' was wrong here? So probably simply make this 'Greek antiquity inspired many later periods.'

Would you like to give a final proof-read?

I think it's fine now, thanks a lot.
