I'm considering doing a panel on how ancient civilizations are depicted manga and anime. I'd be focusing on things like the depiction of the Hittites in Red River, Greek mythology in Saint Seiya, Greek history in Historie, Egyptian civilization in Hatshepsut and Daughter of the Nile, etc. Any other suggestions would, of course, be welcome.
I'd look at similarities in clothing, jewelry, architecture, pottery and other aspects of material culture, as well as historical accuracy.
Would there be any interest in this?
Would a panel on historical manga in general be more welcome?
Or alternatively, should I try a questions of social and political rights in video games type panel?
