Publisher: BDD Illustrated Books; 1993) Since the dawn of time humankind ... morehas been fascinated with the endless mystery of life. The birth of civilization. Including the construction of the first buildings, the manufacture of early artifacts, and the many and carried applications of an evolving technological knowledge, happened in large part because of this fascination. In trying to explain their surroundings and attempting to rationalize the fantastic, human beings created a wealth of monuments that give the modern archaeologist clues as to what life has been like over the millennia. Lost Civilizations" probes the archaeological and anthropological evidence uncovered by researchers and paints a compelling portrait of the growth of civilization. The books starts with a discussion of the very real evidence that points to the existence of a vanished land called"Atlantis" The book then travels to the Near East. Where, as many researchers believe, humankind's first civilization developed, in the Tigris-Euphrates Valley in Mesopotamia. Also included in this chapter are descriptions of the communities in the outlaying regions, particularly ancient Egypt. Next the book focuses on the Mediterranean civilizations. From the Phoenicians; who have been thought responsible for ruins found as far away from their home as North America; to the Trojans and the Greeks. From there"Lost Civilizations" turns to the Far East in an examination of Asian civilizations, including those of China, which has survived as a unified state for more than 2,000 years. Also examined are the Indus River Valley civilizations(the site of modern-day India) as well as Persia, whose well-trained armies conquered an enormous empire. Africa is the next land of mystery to be explored; the civilizations of Zimbabwe and Ethiopia. Among others, are held up to the light of modern scrutiny, deepening suspicions that the continent might have seen not o
