For centuries, Filipino lifeways were presented to outsiders through the distorted lens of colonization—and the oppression, exploitation, and denigration suffered by Filipino ancestors are well-documented. Here, Carl Lorenz Cervantez draws from Filipino folklore, language, and culture to reorient toward an Indigenous worldview: one that rejects being seen as a passive object in history. That reclaims Filipino identity, storytelling, and liberation on Filipino terms.

Neue Ausgrabungen weisen auf eine Besiedlung des Elbtals durch die Slawen im 7. Jahrhundert hin. Dabei geht der Name auf das slawische Wort für Sumpfwald zurück. Um 929 von der Burg Meißen unterworfen, entwickelte sich die Stadtbevölkerung so geschwind, dass es zur Germanisierung und 1206 schließlich zur ersten urkundlichen Erwähnung von Dresden kam.

Though it was one of the most advanced civilizations of its time and responsible for the most ancient prehistoric urban sites across the Indian subcontinent, the Indus Valley Civilization was forgotten for millennia, until 20th century archaeologists rediscovered and began excavations at Mohenjo-daro and Harappa.

Collectors are often praised for their taste in art or contributions to science, but there can be a darker side: their passion is sometimes driven by dangerous obsession. Roman emperors who lusted after statues; Chinese scholars obsessed with rocks and flowers; fin de siècle dandies surrounded by bibelots. History is full of stories about those who love things more than people, presenting a danger either to themselves or others.

Did you know that Zeus had the impulse control of a reality TV star on a bender? That Poseidon settled his grudges with tsunamis? Or that Ares was the god of war but somehow still managed to lose fights? Divine Dysfunction is a wild, sarcastic deep dive into the Greek and Roman gods who ruled the cosmos but couldn’t rule their own lives.

Atlantis: The Antediluvian World explores the mysteries and possibilities of a lost civilization that may have shaped ancient history.

Through compelling arguments and fascinating insights, Donnelly's work has inspired generations to question what we know about human history and what might lie hidden beneath the waves.

In a time when communal rituals and cultural ceremonies fail, longtime scholar, storyteller, and ceremonialist Stephen Jenkinson asks what it means to lose cultural inheritance. In examining matrimony and its ritual twin, patrimony, Matrimony contemplates culture-making, building and preserving cultural memory, and the ache of living in a world bereft of meaning and connection. There is a real and palpable consequence to turning away from public ceremony—and not just for the celebrants.

It goes unappreciated by modern Egyptologists, but it is embraced by those who savor the concept of a “hidden history” of humanity, and those who approach all human knowledge from the perspective of the esoteric. Gerard Massey’s massive Ancient Egypt: The Light of the World–first published in 1907 and the crowning achievement of the self-taught scholar–redefines the roots of Christianity via Egypt, proposing that Egyptian mythology was the basis for Jewish and Christian beliefs.

Here, Cosimo proudly presents Book 7 of Ancient Egypt, in which Massey explains how Egyptian wisdom–which greatly concerns itself with matters of the womb and birth, water, and the offspring of gods–was appropriated by the Hebrew holy books, and explains how the Hebrew account of creation is a clear repetition of Egyptian mythology.

The origin of a saviour in the guise of a little child is traceable to Child-Horus, who brought new life to Egypt every year as the Messu of the inundation. This was Horus in his pre-solar and pre-human characters of the fish, the shoot of the papyrus, or the branch of the endless years. In a later stage the image of Horus on his papyrus represented the young god as solar cause in creation.

Las ideas africanas sobre cómo empezó el mundo son muy diferentes de la historia del Génesis. Aunque en repetidas ocasiones se considera que el dios creador se ha retirado del mundo, la gente suele tener una relación muy directa e intensa con semidioses, antepasados y espíritus de la sabana. Todo el paisaje está impregnado de significados espirituales y habitado por dioses y espíritus. Aunque hoy en día muchos africanos siguen formalmente la fe cristiana o musulmana, a menudo mezclan estas creencias con ritos y tradiciones ancestrales.
