The Other Side of History: Daily Life In The Ancient World by Robert Garland
Requirements: .M4A/.M4B reader, 685 MB
Overview: Imagine you’re a Greek soldier marching into battle in the front row of a phalanx. Or an Egyptian woman putting on makeup before attending an evening party with your husband. Or a Celtic monk scurrying away with the Book of Kells during a Viking invasion. Welcome to the other side of history, the 99% of ordinary people whose names don’t make it into the history books—but whose lives are no less fascinating than the great leaders whose names we all know. Here you’ll encounter such diverse individuals as
a Mesopotamian hunter-gatherer making a living in one of the world’s earliest permanent settlements;
an Egyptian craftsman decorating the pharaoh’s tomb in the Valley of the Kings;
a Minoan fleeing the island of Santorini during a volcanic eruption;
a Greek citizen relaxing at a drinking party with the likes of Socrates;
a Roman slave captured in war and sent to work in the mines; and
a medieval pilgrim on the road to Canterbury.
