If you thought snarky and mischievous teens were exclusive to the modern day, think again. From the moment humanity emerged from the primordial swamp, teenagers have been goofing around, when they weren't being forced into the army or used as human sacrifices. Here's a look at how ancient teenagers really lived.
It'll probably be little comfort to anyone currently battling through school that young people have had to battle through school for thousands of years. It's the truth, though, but only if you were rich.
According to Michigan State University, Egyptian children had to come from wealthy stock to receive a formal education. If so, they would go on to learn reading, writing, and arithmetic. In Ancient Greece, basic education may have been more universal in the early years, but only wealthy teenagers would receive a secondary education, this time in rhetoric, sciences, and philosophy. If you were a slave or exceptionally poor, on the other hand, forget about it.
