Discover other civilizations and cultures with rich and unique histories

Lesser-known ancient civilizations and cultures. Go beyond the popular stories of Greece, Rome, Egypt, the Inca, and the Maya, and uncover the rich diversity of people that are often overlooked. From the world's first peace treaty to daring expeditions across the Pacific, learn about twenty ancient and historic cultures from around the world that have had monumental impacts on our modern world.

A more nuanced look at the ancient world. The Other Ancient Civilisations looks outside mainstream ancient civilizations and cultures and delves into astounding finds unearthed at archaeological sites around the world. Discover the archaeology that sheds light on the secret stories of the Nubians, Olmec, Xiongnu, Minoans, Akkadians, and many more. Discover who they interacted with and how they lived, and what we can learn from them.

How archaeologists decode ancient cultures from what they left behind. Packed with summaries of current archaeological evidence, The Other Ancient Civilisations is an indispensable collection of fascinating stories and facts that have helped archaeologists change the way we understand history.
