What was the living condition of great apes on the African continent in prehistoric times? Does the ancient Greek poet "Homer" really exist? Peisistratus mobilized all his forces to investigate a man named "Homer". His name either refers to "blind man" or "hostage", and some say he is a woman. How did people in the Middle Ages keep themselves clean? Bathing was a luxury at that time: the steam bath cost 2 silver coins and the hot steam bath cost 4 silver coins - the price was set by the Paris judge. Fashion columns reveal the secrets of life trends in every era. Fashionistas in the 18th century claimed: "I will not wear a hat that is not designed by Ross Bertin." It was the most complicated and exaggerated era in the development of human hats, and even something as simple as entering the door became a problem. This book adopts the form of "Headlines Express", with a long and clear timeline from prehistoric times to the 21st century, condensing the society, culture, economy, politics, science and technology, art, war, religion, architecture, food, fashion and other themes of each era. It is equipped with massive illustrations, infographics and special columns to visually restore the hot concerns, world news and trends at that time without any threshold. In addition to the grand historical themes we are familiar with, special attention is also paid to the daily lives of ordinary people. We will truly be in the center of the times, and through seemingly ordinary and subtle details and clues, we can clarify the development of history from the perspective of an insider.
