This book was released on 2020-02-27 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Empires are born. Empires reach their peak. Empires die, but leave their mark through their architecture and artistic achievements. From these specks of dust of memory, 40 centuries of history shape our world of the 21st century. The power of ancient Egypt was followed by the influence of Greece, which brought the Persian East together in the conquests of Alexander the Great. After Cleopatra, the last queen of Egypt, Rome became the power that ruled part of the world, finally dying out in the fall of the Byzantine Empire on 29 May 1453. The authors take the reader on a journey through time and space and highlight the succession of these civilisations that rubbed shoulders, even fought against each other and led us towards a more enlightened humanity.

This book was released on 2018-03-19 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rare and Beautiful Egyptian, Greek, Roman and Persian Antiques: Collected by Azeez Khayat, Expert, in Egypt, Palestine, Syria and Greece Among the glass there are many specimens of rare and exquisite beauty and very unusual forms. The collection is rich in objects for household adorn ment, as well as for personal adornment, such as the Egyptian necklaces, some of which are of unique beauty and unobtainable anywhere at any price. Several of them are strung after the way they were found. The majority of the objects in the collection have come from the Custom House direct to The Anderson Galleries, and they have not been shown or offered at sale before. Every article in the collection is guaranteed to be genuine and as represented in the catalogue. Among the various objects there are a few that are slightly imperfect, but this could not be helped considering their age and the fact that they have been dug up from ruins and buried tombs, temples and houses. It would take a volume to describe fully all the articles in the collection, therefore the catalogue -descriptions are brief; but the full history of any object will be cheerfully given upon request.

Download or read book The Antiquities of Egypt written by Diodore de Sicile and published by Transaction Publishers. This book was released on 1990-01-01 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Diodorus Siculus, a prolific Greek historian of the first century B.C., wrote a detailed account of ancient Egypt for his contemporaries. Even then, Egyptian civilization was ancient, stretching back to eras far more remote to him than Greek civilization is to us. Egypt was a land of mystery to the Greeks. Its pyramids were inexplicable, its writings undecipherable, its religion unfathomable. Its strange laws and stranger customs, such as mummification, were perplexing. The very land itself was mysterious: no one knew the source of the Nile or why it overflowed its banks each year with never a drop of rain. The history and mysteries of Egypt were the sole subject of the Book I of the Library of History, Diodorus' encyclopedic attempt to gather all the historical knowledge of the world into one vast book. The Antiquities of Egypt is the first translation of Diodorus' treatise prepared especially for the general reader but it will appeal to a wide range of scholars and specialists as well. The only other English version in print is a literal accompaniment to the edited Greek text, published over fifty years ago. This new translation is accurate and easy to read, while the notes and appendices amplify and elucidate the text setting the narrative in historical and cultural perspective for the nonspecialist. The illustrations add a graphic support to the text. Students and teachers of ancient history, Egyptology, archeology, and anthropology will find Antiquities of Egypt both accessible and valuable. Specialists in literature, mythology, and comparative religion will find it absorbing and useful introduction to early source material in their fields of study. Edwin Murphy is an independent scholar specializing in ancient and medieval history. He is employed in the Treasury Department, Washington D.C. Murphy has also translated Book II of Diodorus' Library of History, The Antiquities of Asia, also published by Transaction.
