Stone Age Soundtracks
by Paul Devereux
Our Stone Age ancestors sang and played instruments, and ascribed magical qualities to many sounds. Exciting research—known as acoustic archaeology—has reconstructed this vanished aspect, and this new knowledge exposes both the origins of music and a lost world where echoes were considered spirit voices. Travel from chambered mounds in Ireland to French paleolithic caves, and listen to the past once more.
Book
Civilization One
by Christopher Knight
This is the amazing story of how a quest to try to crack the mystery of the Megalithic Yard - an ancient unit of linear measurement - led to the discovery of compelling evidence pointing to the existence of an unknown, highly advanced culture which was the precursor to the earliest known civilizations such as the Sumerians and the Egyptians. There must have been a Civilization One. Knight and Butler reveal the secrets of an extraordinary integrated measuring system which might have been lost to the world for ever. It was a system, far more advanced than anything used today, which forms the basis of both the Imperial and Metric measure systems! These ancient scientists understood the dimensions, motions and relationships of the Earth, Moon and Sun - they measured the solar system and even understood how the speed of light was integrated into the movements of our planet. Their conclusions fly in the face of everything that we thought we knew about the origins of the modern world - but the evidence is incontrovertible. And the implications of these revelations go far beyond the fascination of the discovery of a 'super-science' of prehistory; they indicate a grand plan which will have far reaching theological ramifications!
