剑桥古代史(第一卷·第一分册):导论与史前史
(uk) I. E. S. Edwards Et Al.
"Cambridge Ancient History" was first published in the early 20th century. Since the 1970s, well-known scholars and experts from the English-speaking world, France, Germany and other countries have been rewriting it for 30 years, expanding from the original 12 volumes to 14 volumes and 19 volumes. The new edition of "Cambridge Ancient History" pushes the lower limit of ancient history from the 3rd century AD in the first edition to around the 7th century AD, and adds a lot of content about ancient Egypt, West Asian civilization, and early Greek history, as well as social and economic history, and cultural history. It has made major breakthroughs in a series of fundamental issues such as the origin of ancient civilization, the general characteristics of ancient economy, the relationship between classical civilization and Eastern civilization, and the transformation of the ancient world. This book is the first part of the first volume, including an introduction and prehistory. This book starts from the formation of the earth, and describes the origin of life, the emergence and evolution of human beings, and the development of humans in the Paleolithic Age, the Neolithic Age, and the Chalcolithic Age. The authors are experts and scholars in geology, anthropology, archaeology, linguistics, history, chronology and other disciplines. They vividly introduce the history of early human development from multiple perspectives. This volume of "Introduction and Prehistory" is one of the components of the complete "Cambridge Ancient History", so the content arrangement can only follow the pattern of the whole book, which is limited to the Mediterranean and surrounding areas, and does not involve East Asia, South Asia, sub-Saharan Africa, and South and North America. This may be a shortcoming for readers who want to understand the prehistory of the entire world.
