About this book
How much human history disappeared before anyone could write it down? This book travels into the deep past, where archaeology is revealing complex communities, monumental sites and drowned landscapes that challenge old assumptions about how civilization began.
Explore Göbekli Tepe, Karahantepe, Jericho, Çatalhöyük, Doggerland, Sundaland and other places where the boundary between “prehistoric” and “civilized” becomes far less simple. Along the way, the book examines flood traditions, lost-world theories and claims of forgotten advanced societies without confusing possibility with proof.
Lost Civilizations Before Recorded History is for readers who want the wonder of lost worlds together with the archaeology, chronology and evidence needed to understand what we really know.
