Neste audiolivro, o arqueólogo Theodōros Papakōstas leva o ouvinte a uma jornada por grandes e pequenos momentos da história e da mitologia gregas, mostrando como os povos viviam e explicando como o homem passou de nômade a fundador de civilizações inteiras. Ao longo do trajeto ele responde a várias perguntas intrigantes, derrubando mitos e revelando detalhes sobre objetos do dia a dia e monumentos gregos, assim como curiosidades sobre a vida de pessoas comuns. Tal como na sociedade moderna, elas amavam, traíam, pediam proteção aos deuses e tomavam porres homéricos.

Story1
Flatboats were the most prolific type of vessel on the Ohio and Mississippi Rivers during the early 1800s. Thousands of these boats descended the two rivers each year, carrying not only valuable cargo to New Orleans but also western-bound emigrants to newly opened territories. By the late 1800s, flatboats had completely disappeared, and no intact examples were known to exist. That changed in 2000, when local residents found a wreck on the Ohio River shoreline in Illinois.

Violence is rampant in today's society. From state-sanctioned violence and the brutality of war and genocide to interpersonal fighting and the ways in which social lives are structured and symbolized by and through violence, people enact terrible things on other human beings almost every day. In Archaeologies of Violence and Privilege, archaeologists Christopher N. Matthews and Bradley D. Phillippi bring together a collection of authors who document the ways in which past social formations rested on violent acts and reproduced violent social and cultural structures.

Craig Childs bears witness to rock art of the Colorado Plateau—bighorn sheep pecked behind boulders, tiny spirals in stone, human figures with upraised arms shifting with the desert light, each one a portal to the open mouth of time. With a spirit of generosity, humility, and love of the arid, intricate landscapes of the desert Southwest, Childs sets these ancient communications in context, inviting listeners to look and listen deeply.

Marilyn Johnson's Lives in Ruins is an absorbing and entertaining look at the lives of contemporary archaeologists as they sweat under the sun for clues to the puzzle of our past. Johnson digs and drinks alongside archaeologists, and chases them through the Mediterranean, the Caribbean, and even Machu Picchu. Her subjects share stories about slaves and Ice Age hunters, ordinary soldiers of the American Revolution, Chinese woman warriors, sunken fleets, and mummies.

When did the human species turn against the planet that we depend on for survival? Human industry and consumption of resources have altered the climate, polluted the water and soil, destroyed ecosystems, and rendered many species extinct, vastly increasing the likelihood of an ecological catastrophe. How did humankind come to rule nature to such an extent? To regard the planet's resources and creatures as ours for the taking? To find ourselves on a seemingly relentless path toward ecocide?

Story2
The Inka empire was the largest pre-Columbian polity in the New World. Its vast expanse, its ethnic diversity, and the fact that the empire may have been consolidated in less than a century have prompted much scholarly interest in its creation. In this study, Besom explores the ritual practices of human sacrifice and the worship of mountains, attested in both archaeological investigations and ethnohistorical sources, as tools in the establishment and preservation of political power.

Story2
Once, farmers knew how to make a living hedge and fed their flocks on tree-branch hay. Rural people knew how to prune hazel to foster abundance: both of edible nuts, and of straight, strong, flexible rods for bridges, walls, and baskets. No place could prosper without its inhabitants knowing how to cut their trees so they would sprout again. This created the healthiest, most sustainable, and most diverse woodlands that we have ever known. In this journey from the English fens to Spain, Japan, and California, William Bryant Logan rediscovers what was once an everyday ecology.

Es ist eine Epoche von Intrigen, Bruderkämpfen und Schlachten: Dieser Wendepunkt der europäischen Geschichte kann nun völlig neu dargestellt werden, dank einer Vielzahl aktueller archäologischer Ausgrabungen und archäogenetischer Untersuchungen.

Seit Jahrhunderten fasziniert die Geschichte des Heiligen Grals die Menschheit. Er soll der Kelch sein, aus dem Jesus beim letzten Abendmahl trank, oder das Gefäß, in dem das heilige Blut Christi gesammelt wurde. Er wurde von Rittern gesucht, von Geheimbünden gehütet, von Wissenschaftlern analysiert und von Abenteurern verfolgt. Doch trotz aller Legenden, Theorien und Spekulationen bleibt eine Frage bis heute unbeantwortet: Gibt es den Heiligen Gral wirklich – oder ist er nur eine Geschichte, die sich verselbstständigt hat? Dieses Hörbuch geht der Legende auf den Grund.

More mounds were built by ancient Native Americans in Wisconsin than in any other region of North America—between 15,000 and 20,000, at least 4,000 of which remain today. Most impressive are the effigy mounds, huge earthworks sculpted in the shapes of thunderbirds, water panthers, and other forms, not found anywhere else in the world in such concentrations. This second edition of Indian Mounds of Wisconsin is updated throughout, incorporating exciting new research and satellite imagery. Written for general listeners, it offers a comprehensive overview of these intriguing earthworks.
