Arch of History

Arch of History: through Atlantis, Sumeria, Israel blends history, science, religious references, and politics to create an engaging, accessible narrative from creation of the universe and Earth's formation to the emergence of modern societies, through the centuries, and into today's world with a peek into our future. The beginning contrasts the Sumerian Creation Story with the scientific formation of the universe and Earth, the emergence of Neandertals and Cro-Magnons before and after the catastrophic Indonesian supervolcanic eruption 74,000 years ago, and exploring the first cultures to form societies. Archaeology and religious text lay the groundwork as the narrative follows humans through the devastating end of the Ice Age 11,700 years ago to repopulating Earth and developing complex and magnificent ancient civilizations. The final section covers the last two thousand years, the Common Era, in the Land of Israel, the expansion of modern Europe and Asia, effects of the Little Ice Age, and the settlement of America. Newly undisclosed documents reveal the secret deals leading to both world wars. The conclusion encompasses possible future scenarios for humankind.
