he ancient world saw the birth and collapse of great
civilizations. In mainstream history the Classical world is dominated by
Greece and Rome, and the Biblical world is centred on the Hebrews. Yet
the roughly four-and-a-half thousand years (4000 bc ad 550) covered in
this book saw many peoples come and go within the brawling,
multi-cultural mass of humanity that occupied the ancient Middle East,
Mediterranean and beyond. While a handful of ancient cultures have
garnered much of the credit, these forgotten peoples also helped to lay
the foundations of our modern world. This guide brings these lost
peoples out of the shadows to highlight their influence and
achievements.
Forty-five entries span the birth of civilization
in Mesopotamia to the fall of the Roman Empire in the West, offering an
alternative history focusing on the names we aren t familiar with, from
the Hurrians to the Hephthalites, as well as the peoples whose names we
know, such as the Philistines and the Vandals, but whose real
significance has been obscured. Each entry charts the rise and fall of a
lost people, and how their culture echoes through history into the
present. Important ancient artefacts are illustrated throughout and
fifty specially drawn maps help orientate the reader within this
tumultuous period of history. Philip Matyszak brings to life the rich
diversity of the peoples founding cities, inventing alphabets and
battling each other in the ancient world, and explores how and why they
came to be forgotten.
