Actually an interesting little book. It has about 80-100 maps which I love. The text is a simplistic survey of ancient civilizations all around the world. I enjoyed the book, learned a few things and had a pleasant time reading it. It is probably more appropriate for juvenile readers but with the maps it has material for everyone. I also enjoyed the thorough coverage. ( ) geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

The Penguin Historical Atlas of Ancient Civilizations explores the world's earliest cultures, from the farming settlements of Mesopotamia to the Americas and Polynesia, via the birth of Greek city states and the foundation of Rome. It examines the development of civilizations in the Near East - Babylonian, Assyrian, Persian - as well as those in Europe - the Minoans, Etruscans and Celts. Across the continents of Africa, Asia and America it covers subjects including Egypt from its pre-dynastic roots to the age of the Pharaohs, China during the Shang and Zhou dynasties, and the great cities of the Incas and Aztecs. Vivid descriptions of individual civilizations are complemented by discussion of such key topics as colonization, agriculture and technology, and the rise of empires. Richly illustrated with photographs, artwork re-creations and full-colour maps, this is an illuminating and multi-faceted one-volume introduction to early peoples and the worlds they created.
