Personally, I hate houzz (pronounced whose), they are greedy, steal ideas and are primarily an advertising/sale site (sure to get down votes from houzz fans). Though occasionally they have good ides. I am not a fan of pinterest, either, also because they steal content and often don't link back to the provider. Thankfully there is still a lot of content on YouTube that they haven't managed to co-opt.

The biggest differences between logistics during the medieval period and the antiquity period is in the degree of political centralization of the state and the strength of the state's economy. Under Roman governance, trade stretched from all reaches of Europe and became highly specialized. But with the collapse of the Western government and the political fragmentation of the West, long distance trade collapsed and the power of the successor states weakened. This is especially important since the state needs to maintain a substantial number of supply depots, roads, communication posts, ports, and other infrastructure if the state wishes to be able to wage war for an extended period of time and over a great distance.
If you think about it, battles during the classical Roman era could see armies that number easily into the tens of thousands. However, if you look at the size of many of the more important medieval battles, they usually number from single digit thousands and in the rare occasion, they will go into the double digit thousands. See the Siege of Orléans, the Battle of Cadsand, the Battle of Stamford Bridge, and the Battle of Clontarf just to name a few. One of the exceptions to this trend, however, can be found in the medieval Roman Empire, also known as the Byzantine Empire. Under their governance, they were still able to maintain well funded logistical infrastructure.
There are several monographs written by medieval experts but I don't know them off the top of my head. However, I do know of several monographs written on logistics in antiquity. The most well known book on ancient logistics is Alexander the Great and the Logistics of the Macedonian Army, which kicked started the field of ancient logistics. For logistics in Roman history, see The Logistics of the Roman Army at War (264 B.C. - A.D.235).
Some reading for you:
Yun Lee Too (ed.), Education in Greek and Roman Antiquity -- An edited volume with several essays that will be of interest to you.
Robert Kaster, The Guardians of Language: The Grammarian and Society in Late Antiquity -- The period described is a bit later than what most people think of as "ancient Greece," but a lot of it still applies.
Finally, Plato discusses education, particularly in the Republic. Quintilian's Institutes of Oratory, though from a Roman perspective, are also useful for understanding ancient education.
It depends on what you consider cheap. Used options for all of these are available at very reasonable prices, though I don't personally think that the new prices are super high, though I do know of the more expensive books you've probably seen like the Wegner book for closer to a hundred.

Another conservator piping in: you might also want to consider if you need anything special in terms of health and safety for display cases where you might put radioactive geological samples (you may or may not do that but 'earth sciences' always makes me think 'ooh, Geiger counter time!').
I'm not American so I can't recommend any training or workshops but there are a good deal of decent books out there to explore:
They aren't cheap but you might be able to find some through libraries in your area depending on where you live.
Congratulations, this is an amazing opportunity! Good luck and have fun. :D
I would think Hanioğlu covers those congresses pretty well, you might want to check out Şerif Mardin's The Genesis of Young Ottoman Thought and Erik Zürcher's The Unionist Factor if you haven't already.
Hey slushPuppy69! I wrote the book Upcyclist: Reclaimed and Remade Furniture, Lighting and Interiors. It's published by Prestel/Randomhouse and contains lots of beautiful examples of upcycled design. You can check it out here! :D
I can find absolutely nothing online, but here is the Worldcat listing, and Amazon offers a modern translation for about $70.
It isn't easy, but we have solid numbers on Josephus and more roundabout supposed numbers for Jesus. I'm not sure where Spiffjiggins is getting his 30+ years statistic from, but if you're interested you can read all about where we get the date for the death of Josephus.
Hello, also from the region.
Some books/articles most of which are pretty accessible I think:
Have not read it but:

This book is amazing for narrating how Otl Aicher started Ulm, and eventually co-founded the school with Max Bill. Essentially, Ulm was geared toward "designing" a possible way of life out from under WWII. It was a school founded and run by and for the city (design would be at the core of government--how to "design" a functioning post-War Germany). Some of the ideas, like modular housing, carried over from the Bauhaus. Aicher's book, The World as Design encapsulates it: industry, commercial goods, typefaces like Rotis (which Aicher invented), etc., all of it would contribute towards a progressive and humane society.
The predecessor for this was not only the Bauhaus, but prior to that Peter Behrens' work with AEG and all of the Werkbund. For example, see Behrens' famous clocks from 1908 and 1910.
http://www.amazon.com/Otl-Aicher-Markus-Rathgeb/dp/0714843962/
Otl Aicher is absolutely fascinating. If you've read/watched/heard anything about Sophie Scholl or the White Rose, those were, unfortunately, his family friends. The politics behind the Bauhaus and Ulm are absolutely essential.
Read this and purge yourself of ignorance, please.
Yeah, I'm still trying to dig that up. The first article requires a login :( - but Sarvāstivāda by Bart Dessein might just have what you're looking for. The Willemen book is supposed to be the definitive work (here's another link to it)
Thanks.
It looks like the items are overpriced, and gharar isn't allowed in islam.
