The aspects of ancient Greek civilization that were influenced by the climate include:
1. **Houses had open courtyards.** - The warm climate encouraged designs that included open spaces for ventilation and outdoor living.
2. **Farmers grew olives and barley.** - The Mediterranean climate, characterized by hot, dry summers and mild, wet winters, was suitable for cultivating olives and barley.
3. **Farmers raised sheep and goats.** - The climate and mountainous terrain made it ideal for herding sheep and goats, which are well adapted to such environments.
While the other two options (excellent shipbuilders and outdoor activities) are true of ancient Greeks, they are not directly a result of climate.
