Atlantis Destroyed
ISBN: 9780415247597 / Angielski / Miękka / 2001 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This text examines the legend of the lost continent of Atlantis, whose famed description is found in Plato's Timaeus and the Critias. Plato's legend of Atlantis has become notorious among scholars as the absurdest lie in literature. The book explores the possibility that the account given by Plato is historically true and outlines the research findings on Knossos and Bronze Age Thera, demonstrating the parallels between Plato's narrative and the Minoan Civilization in the Aegean.

The Making of Stonehenge
ISBN: 9780415642880 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Every generation has created its own interpretation of Stonehenge, but rarely do these relate to the physical realities of the monument. Rodney Castleden begins with those elements which made possible the building of this vast stone circle: the site, the materials and the society that undertook the enormous task of transporting and raising the great vertical stones, then capping them, all to a carefully contrived plan.
What emerges from this detailed examination is a much fuller sense of Stonehenge, both in relation to all the similar sites close by, and in terms of the uses to which it...

Król Artur Prawda ukryta w legendzie
ISBN: 9788367276221 / Polski / broszurowa / 2024 / 432 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 6-8 dni roboczych. Król Artur przedstawiany jest często jako postać będąca nierealnym tworem wczesnego średniowiecza, rodem z powieści fantasy; ucieleśnione marzenie tych, którzy tęsknili za czasami potęgi, sprawiedliwych władców i królestw żyjących obok siebie w pokoju. Nawet ci, którzy uważali Artura za postać historyczną, z zasady deprecjonowali związane z nim opowieści.

Neolithic Britain: New Stone Age Sites of England, Scotland and Wales
ISBN: 9781138812703 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 460 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The climax of the Stone Age in Britain, the Neolithic period (4700-2000BC), was a period of startling achievement. The British Isles are rich in Neolithic sites, which give us evidence of a complex and surprisingly developed archaic society. The author surveys 1100 secular and ceremonial sites in Britain, selecting some for detailed explanation; from these a sense of the diversity and dynamism of the living Neolithic communities emerges. He presents a comprehensive, profusely illustrated and up-to-date view of the Neolithic, organised by county. Archaeologists and prehistorians will...

King Arthur: The Truth Behind the Legend
ISBN: 9780415316552 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. King Arthur is often written off as a medieval fantasy, the dream of those yearning for an age of strong, just rulers and a contented kingdom. Those who accept his existence at all generally discard the stories that surround him. This exciting new investigation argues not only that Arthur did exist, as a Dark Age chieftain, but that many of the romantic tales - of Merlin, Camelot and Excalibur - are rooted in truth.
In his quest for the real King Arthur, Rodney Castleden uses up-to-date archaeological and documentary evidence to recreate the history and society of Dark Age Britain and its...

The biography of part of the Sussex coast is told for the first time: the central stretch of Seaford Bay. The coastline of East Blatchington parish is less than a thousand yards long, but it has had a surprisingly rich and dramatic history.

The biographies of...
