Megalithism: Sacred and Pagan Architecture in Prehistory
by Pozzi, Alberto       
(Paperback - English - 9781612332550)
Megalithism, or the art of using huge boulders to create sacred, pagan monuments and sites, still fascinates us today. How did Prehistoric man cut, transport, and place such enormous stones, some weighing up to 200 metric tons, without bulldozers, drills, and cranes? Yet primitive man, without the written word or wheel, created structures which still stupefy us in the 21st century, both due to their components and the precision used in positioning them. This book takes us back in time to the 5th-2nd millennia B.C. and helps us visualise the Stone Age world and its constructions - menhirs, dolmens, rows and circles of standing stones. Undoubtedly they were sacred ..

Unexplained Mysteries: Ancient Aliens or Lost Technology?: The Missing Tech Behind the World's Greatest Structures
by Redfern, Robert Jean

When we look at the incredible feats of engineering that our ancestors were able to achieve, it leaves us in awe. br Not just because these structures are beautiful and shrouded in mystery, but because they were constructed on a scale we can't comprehend, thousands of years ago. Modern science claims everything boils down to physical labor and primitive tools, yet can't replicate an effective recreation strategy. strong Let's explore: strong ul li The Great Pyramids Of Giza li li Stonehenge li li Derinkuyu Underground City li li Pumapunku li li Gobekli Tepe li li Nan Madol li li Hypogeum of Hal-Saflieni li li Coral Castle li li Russian Meg ..

Ancient Architecture of the Southwest
by Morgan, William N.    Swentzell, Rina   
(Paperback - English - 9780292757660)
During more than a thousand years before Europeans arrived in 1540, the native peoples of what is now the southwestern United States and northern Mexico developed an architecture of rich diversity and beauty. Vestiges of thousands of these dwellings and villages still remain, in locations ranging from Colorado in the north to Chihuahua in the south and from Nevada in the west to eastern New Mexico. This study presents the most comprehensive architectural survey of the region currently available. Organized in five chronological sections that include 132 professionally rendered site drawings, the book examines architectural evolution from humble pit houses to sop ..

East Timor (Timo Leste): History, Government and Politics, People, Culture and Religion
by Peter, Owen       
(Paperback - English - 9781912483020)
East Timor (Timo Leste) History, Government and Politics, People, Culture and Religion. From the 16th century onwards, East Timor was a Portuguese colony known as Portuguese Timor. The rest of the island of Timor, and the other islands that were later to become Indonesia, were colonised by the Dutch between the 17th and 19th centuries, and were known as the Dutch East Indies. Portugal largely neglected the colony, using it mainly as a place to exile those who the government in Lisbon saw as "problems" - these included political prisoners as well as ordinary criminals. Although Portugal was neutral during World War II, in December 1941, Portuguese Timor was occup ..

New Perspectives on Prehistoric Art
by Berghaus, Gunter       
(Hardcover - English - 9780275978136)
Following the discovery of Franco-Caribbean cave art in the nineteenth century, standard interpretations of these works usually revolved around hunting, magic, and fertility cults. Orthodox positions such as these have weighed heavily on later generations of art historians, archaeologists, and anthropologists, even those whose views dissented from those of their predecessors. In the last few decades, however, new approaches to cave art, often based on discoveries made in Africa, Asia, Australia, North America, and the Arctic region, have produced new insights into possible meanings and functions of prehistoric paintings and sculptures. This new collection of ess ..

This 1740 analysis of Stonehenge by William Stukeley is one of the classic studies of the historic and mystical site. Stukeley was a Fellow of the Royal Society and an early Speculative Freemason.

The illustrations in this book, which show Stonehenge from every angle and document its context in the 18th century landscape, are still used today by scholars. ..

United Kingdom: From Early Centuries, the History
by Booth, Michael       
(Paperback - English - 9781912483204)
United Kingdom. From Early Centuries, the History. Archaeologists working in Norfolk in the early 21st century discovered stone tools that suggest the presence of humans in Britain from about 800,000 to 1 million years ago. These startling discoveries underlined the extent to which archaeological research is responsible for any knowledge of Britain before the Roman conquest (begun ad 43). Britain's ancient history is thus lacking in detail, for archaeology can rarely identify personalities, motives, or exact dates or present more than a general overview. All that is available is a picture of successive cultures and some knowledge of economic development. But eve ..

United Kingdom: From Early Centuries, the History
by Booth, Michael       
(Paperback - English - 9781912483211)
British History. From Early Centuries, the History. Such compromises were easy to make in autumn 1914, when the excitement over the outbreak of war was high, causing a crush of enlistments, and when it was still generally believed that the war would be over within six months. By spring 1915, however, enthusiasm for the war began to cool and recruiting fell off. Moreover, Asquith's government seemed to have lost its grip on affairs; newspapers carried reports of an inadequate supply of ammunition on the Western Front, and on May 15 the first sea lord, Adm. John Fisher, resigned. The Conservative leader, Andrew Bonar Law, under pressure from his followers to take ..

Pattern Within Settlements Paced from 1 to 9
by Halldorsson, Petur       
(Paperback - English - 9789935243089)
Research into the conceptual background of Icelandic myth revealed a prehistoric cosmology marked in the land by Iceland's 9th century settlers with exquisite geometric and mathematical precision. br My research is based on the work of the Icelandic scholar, Einarlsson, who discovered this ancient structure of thought. br It may reconstruct the entire human environment as a work of art and change the way you see history. The principal reference points of the measure involved were the motions of the stars, the sun and the cardinal directions. In fact, the measured cosmology (Cosmic image) was a projection on the terrain of the zodiac, anchored to prominent ..
