Requirements: .ePUB Reader | 12 MB
Overview: C.W. Ceram visualized archeology as a wonderful combination of high adventure, romance, history & scholarship. This book, a chronicle of the human search for our past, reads like a dramatic narrative. We travel with Heinrich Schliemann as, defying the ridicule of the learned world, he actually unearths the remains of the ancient city of Troy. We share the excitement of Lord Carnarvon & Howard Carter as they first glimpse the riches of Tutankhamen’s tomb, of George Smith when he found the ancient clay tablets that contained the records of the Biblical Flood. We rediscover the ruined splendors of the Hanging Gardens of Babylon, one of the wonders of the ancient wold; of Chichen Itza, the abandoned pyramids of the Maya: & the legendary Labyrinth of tile Minotaur in Crete. Here is much of the history of civilization & the stories of those who rediscovered it.
