Understanding Prehistoric and Ancient Human Societies
Posted: Apr 07, 2016
Almost everything you thought you knew about the history of the ancient world is wrong: the origins of civilization, the pyramids, agriculture and science, is not in Greece and Rome but Sumer and Akkad. Human intelligence is unique to our species and ancient people knew far more than most people today are willing to recognize. The Sumerians gave us the earliest known records and began a cycle of recording history in written form. The pyramids were designed with architecture and astronomy in mind. The builders of the pyramids used sophisticated techniques to create these wonders.
