How was an Egyptian Mummy made?
Why did Celtic warriors paint themselves blue?
These and hundreds of other questions are answered in this lavishly illustrated book which builds up a picture of life right across the globe.
From the first farming village of the Middle East to the end of the Roman Empire, the rise and fall of all major civilizations is explored in clear, simple language.
Stunning reconstructions and photographs bring to life the temples and tombs, palaces and pyramids of the distant past, and give a flavour of everyday life. Important dates are shown in boxes for quick reference, and maps and timelines make it easy to see where and when things happened in the period from 10,000BV to 500AD.
"... packed with fascinating facts and covers both the well-known civilisations of Greeks and Romans and relatively unheard-of peoples - such as the incense makers of Arabia.
