100 Great Ancient Cities
Ur, Ilium, Thebes, Memphis, Knossos, Jerusalem, Athens, Sparta, Rome... Cities of antiquity. Some of them arose at the crossroads of trade routes, while others emerged in desolate deserts. There were fortified cities, scientific centers, barracks cities, and cities that grew...
around river docks or seaports. Many were founded at the whim of proud rulers and conquerors. Often, their fate was tragic: a swift blossoming followed by a catastrophic demise.
This book tells about one hundred great cities of antiquity.
