Ancient Spiritual Beliefs & Early Religions
For individuals interested in bridging the gap between the foundings of religions and their present state.
The Parting of the Ways Between Synagogue and Church:
A lucid and invaluable study of the separation of Christianity from Judaism in the first century. It traces the historical forces at work in the central issues that led to the disagreements and finally, mutual rejection.
The Cosmic Code:
From deep inside ancient Sumerian texts that predate even the Bible, Zecharia Sitchin dares to reveal the nature of prophecy and historical truths that have long been obscured by disbelief and misunderstanding: the code used to construct our kind by master builders from the stars.
The Seventy Great Mysteries of the Ancient World:
Between the great rivers Tigris and Euphrates lies the rich alluvial land of Mesopotamia (now in modern Iraq), which supported a complex and prosperous society over 4,000 years ago. The stories translated here include not only myths about the Creation and stories of the Flood, but also the longest and greatest literary composition, the "Epic of Gilgamesh", a story of a heroic quest for fame and immortality. These ancient stories from the cradle of civilization stand alongside the Odyssey in their popularity.
When Time Began:
Etruscan Life and Afterlife:
...Throughout, new and old have been combined in a way that enables this book to cater effectively for the needs both of beginners and of scholars in areas adjacent to the Etruscans in space (Iron Age Europe, Classical Greece) and time (Mediterranean prehistory, the Roman period). Another new and welcome feature of this well-integrated collection is {David Enders} Tripp's succinct guide to Etruscan coinage, which to my knowledge has never been treated at this level in any language.

From Atlantis to the Sphinx:
In his astonishing new bestseller exploring the implications of these explosive new findings, Colin Wilson takes us on a grand tour of the knowledge amassed by researchers over the centuries to ask questions about mysteries that have puzzled humanity since Plato: Was there an ancient civilization destroyed by some great catastrophe whose survivors built the Sphinx some 10,500 years before Christ? ...a fascinating exploration of the remote depths of history.
The Time Falling Bodies Take to Light:
Taking us from the earliest periods of prehistory through the time of female goddess worship to the rise of the male-dominated warrior state, Thompson shows the passage of humankind's relationship to nature from initial awe to persistent conquest. This is a beautiful and fascinating book now being reissued for a new generation of readers, as well as for those it inspired originally.

How to Read Egyptian Hieroglyphs
Novel and straightforward approach is informed by years of experience teaching Egyptian hieroglyphs to non-specialists. They use clear and attractive drawings of actual inscriptions displayed in the British Museum and concentrate on the kinds of monuments readers might encounter in other museum collections - especially funerary inscriptions, coffins, and tomb scenes. Each chapter introduces a new aspect of hieroglyphic script or Middle Egyptian grammar and provides practical exercises to improve reading skills.
Fingerprints of the Gods:
The bestselling author of The Sign and the Seal reveals the true origins of civilization. Connecting puzzling clues scattered throughout the world, Hancock discovers compelling evidence of a technologically and culturally advanced civilization that was destroyed and obliterated from human memory. Great reviews.

ON 4 CASSETTES...Cahill takes us on another enchanting journey into history, once again recreating a time when the actions of a small band of people had repercussions that are still felt today. Full of compelling stories, insights and humor, "The Gifts of the Jews" is an irresistible exploration of history as fascinating and fun as "How the Irish Saved Civilization." (also by this author.)
