Question

What is the title of a university course in the study of ancient civilization?

Answer 1

each university has different names for those types of courses. my university had a course entitled "development of ancient civilizations".

Answer 2

Archeology is the study of human cultures through the recovery, documentation and analysis of material remains and environmental data, including architecture, artifacts, biofacts, human remains, and landscapes.

The goals of archaeology are to document and explain the origins and development of human culture, understand culture history, chronicle cultural evolution, and study human behavior and ecology, for both prehistoric and historic societies. It is considered in North America to be one of the four sub-fields of anthropology.

Answer 3

The simplest is "Ancient History".

Archaeology, by the way, is a rather treacherous answer. Archaeology is a method of scientific discovery of information about the past, and its provenance includes societies that anthropologists would not describe as "civilizations" (e.g. simple tribal societies) and ones that historians would not classify as ancient (e.g. mediaeval). You might realistically find an archaeology course that focuses on, and broadens to include, the study of ancient civilizations, but you would have to read the prospectus to be sure of it.
