"A captivating journey" through 15,000 years of fascinating yet often-forgotten ancient civilizations and cultures-includes maps and illustrations (Natasha Billson, host,
The Great British Dig).
From the world's first peace treaty to daring expeditions across the Pacific, this book explores twenty ancient and historic cultures that have had monumental impacts on our modern world-but that few people know about.
Archaeologist Raven Todd DaSilva, creator of the popular platform Dig It With Raven, looks beyond the familiar names and places and delves into astounding finds unearthed at archaeological sites around the globe. Discover the archaeology that sheds light on the secret stories of the Nubians, Olmec, Xiongnu, Minoans, Akkadians, and many more. Rather than focusing only on great rulers and monumental buildings, the book highlights the everyday lives of peoples of the past, who they interacted with, and what we can learn from them.
Packed with summaries of current archaeological evidence, detailed maps, and striking images of artefacts and sites,
The Other Ancient Civilizationsreveals how archaeologists decode ancient cultures from what they left behind-and is an indispensable collection of fascinating stories and facts that illustrate both the differences and similarities between us and our long-distant ancestors.
"A succinct journey through some of the world's less well-known complex societies ... excellent, thoroughly researched, and admirably illustrated." -Brian Fagan, author of
People of the Earth
