История Древнего мира. От истоков цивилизации до первых империй

The history of the ancient world – from the earliest scientifically documented events to the first empires.
In this book, Susan Bauer presents and proves an intriguing theory of the interaction and mutual penetration of cultures from various Western and Eastern civilizations.
Not just dry facts, but a detailed and vivid account of the foreign and domestic policies of ancient states, their literature, religion and mythology, everyday life and governance systems.
The result is an astonishing mosaic of events, testimonies and documents, where each element is equally important.
