Charles Hapgood's classic 1966 book on ancient maps is back. Hapgood produces concrete evidence of an advanced worldwide civilization existing many thousands of years before ancient Egypt.

The library of Ashurbanipal, Assyria’s last great king, held an astonishing collection at the forefront of knowledge in its day, from ancient traditions in religion and literature to the latest developments in magic and medicine. When the Assyrian empire fell, the library burned to the ground, and its contents, clay tablets inscribed with cuneiform writing, lay buried for thousands of years until a team of Victorian archaeologists discovered the remnants in modern-day Iraq. The clay had baked and hardened; the very fire that consumed the library had helped its texts to survive for millennia.

Daughter. Duhitár-. Dustr. Dukte. Listen to these English, Sanskrit, Armenian and Lithuanian words, all meaning the same thing, and you hear echoes of one of history’s most unlikely journeys. All four languages—along with hundreds of others, from French and Gaelic, to Persian and Polish—trace their origins to an ancient tongue spoken as the last ice age receded. This language, which we call Proto-Indo-European, was born between Europe and Asia and exploded out of its cradle, fragmenting as it spread east and west.

It's easy to think that ancient history is, well, ancient history—obsolete, irrelevant, unjustifiably focused on Greece and Rome, and at risk of extinction. In What Is Ancient History?, Walter Scheidel presents a compelling case for a new kind of ancient history—a global history that captures antiquity's pivotal role as a decisive phase in human development, one that provided the shared foundation of our world and continues to shape our lives today.

Seit Jahrhunderten fasziniert die Geschichte des Heiligen Grals die Menschheit. Er soll der Kelch sein, aus dem Jesus beim letzten Abendmahl trank, oder das Gefäß, in dem das heilige Blut Christi gesammelt wurde. Er wurde von Rittern gesucht, von Geheimbünden gehütet, von Wissenschaftlern analysiert und von Abenteurern verfolgt. Doch trotz aller Legenden, Theorien und Spekulationen bleibt eine Frage bis heute unbeantwortet: Gibt es den Heiligen Gral wirklich – oder ist er nur eine Geschichte, die sich verselbstständigt hat? Dieses Hörbuch geht der Legende auf den Grund.
