古代世界:追寻西方文明之源
(uk) Richard Miles
What were ancient civilizations like? The emergence of cities, the invention of iron, the rise of Greece, the return of kings, the power of the republic, the highlighting of human nature... This book is a brief history of ancient Western civilization. It is another historical narrative about the ancient Western world before the formation of the Roman Empire after Richard Myers' famous book "Carthage Must Be Destroyed." Through archaeological excavation and historical data crawling, Richard Myers attempts to travel to that distant past and lead readers to explore the origins of Western civilization. He begins in Mesopotamia and continues to the fall of the Roman Empire.
