Anthropology History

Dieses Hörbuch stellt einen übersichtlichen chronologischen Querschnitt der uns heute bekannten Entstehung und Entwicklung der menschlichen Kultur dar. Vom 5ten Jahrtausend vor Christus bis zum Jahre 2024 bewegen wir uns innerhalb eines Zeitfensters von etwa 7000 Jahren. Was manchen wie ein unglaublich langer Zeitraum erscheinen mag, ist für uns durch dieses Hörbuch ein gemütliches Dahingleiten durch die relative Ewigkeit des menschlichen Geistes. Da Künste, Religionen, Gesellschaftsformen etc. Produkte der menschlichen Kultur sind, erfahren wir gewissermaßen "fast Alles über fast Alles" ohne fast Nichts zu vergessen.

In Voyagers, the distinguished anthropologist Nick Thomas charts the course of the seaborne migrations that populated the islands between the Americas and the western coast of Asia from late prehistory onwards: firstly the colonization by speakers of Austronesian languages of the western Pacific littoral, from around 3000 BC, of the Philippines, Indonesia, Micronesia and Melanesia; followed by the later settlement, by Polynesian peoples, of Fiji, Samoa, Tonga, Tahiti, the Marquesas, Easter Island and eventually New Zealand, up to AD 1250.

The city is surrounded by and filled with natural beauty - mountains and hills and lakes and a bay - and architecture that mirrors its history as a Spanish mission, a gold rush outpost, and home of the West's most devious robber barons. It's also a city of artists and blue-collar workers, the birthplace of the Black Panthers, neighbor to Berkeley, and home to a vibrant and volatile stew of immigrants and refugees.

Die Archäologie ist ein faszinierendes Abenteuer, das uns die Türen zur Vergangenheit öffnet und die Geschichten längst vergangener Zivilisationen ans Licht bringt.

The Sumerians were the people from Sumer, the first recognized society in the historic area of southern Mesopotamia (now southern Iraq), developed throughout the 6th and 5th centuries BC throughout the Chalcolithic and early Bronze Ages. In addition to age-old Egypt, the Caral-Supe culture, the Indus Valley civilization, the Minoan civilization, and age-old China, it is also one of the world's early civilizations.
