Description
Book Synopsis
Witness the rise and fall of ancient empires and forgotten cultures--and their epic stories--with this unique map-led history. From Mesopotamia's thriving trade hubs to the spectacular cities of the Inca, such as Machu Picchu, Civilizations Map By Map charts the rise and fall of more than 90 pioneering early societies. A combination of specially commissioned storytelling maps and contemporary examples offer a window into the pivotal events, key innovations, cultural cornerstones, and enduring legacies of these ancient worlds. Travel through 6,000 years of history--from the first recorded war between Elam and Sumer, through Alexander the Great's conquests across three continents, to the rapid expansion of the Aztec Empire. Discover the birth of writing, the calendar, coinage, and urban planning, along with the spread of early scientific knowledge, and religious, philosophical, and political ideas. Marvel at colossal Olmec stone heads, the exquisite gold artifacts of ancient Korea's Silla Kingdom, the rock-hewn churches of the Zagwe dynasty, and many more artistic and architectural triumphs. Written and authenticated by a panel of expert historians, Civilizations Map By Map uncovers the incredible stories of our shared past, one map at a time.Dimensions (Overall): 11.88 Inches (H) x 9.94 Inches (W)
