Sumeria, the San Francisco-based multimedia publisher, has teamed up with Scientific American magazine to produce Exploring Ancient Cities, an interactive CD-ROM-based exploration of four ancient civilizations. All of the pictures, text, and movies in this CD-ROM can be easily exported and reused for noncommercial applications. Stories originally appearing in Scientific American are brought to life with design, imagery, video, music, and narration from Sumeria- allowing the reader to wander through each of these sites. Featuring the narration of Academy Award winner Rod McKuen and the music of Academy Award winner John Lewis.

Exploring Ancient Cities provides full coverage of four unique cities. Explore hundreds of photos on subjects like Minoan writings, Teotibuacan murals, Pompeian frescoes, and Natataen tomb architecture.

The CD contains all new photography and video of the excavation sites for four ancient civilizations. You can explore each site as you read the original articles from Scientific American magazine.
