What about the Aztec copper bowl of Currant Creek, the gold plate of the Wasatch Front, the lead plates of the Myton Bench, the Manti tablets, the Kinderhook plates, and the Soper/Savage collection in LDS Church archives?Best-selling author Stephen Shaffer explores these mysteries and the remnants of a forgotten people in Treasures of the Ancients: Recent Discoveries of Ancient Writings in North America.
Voice of the Ancients - At First Sight by Cha Rnacircle Pdf
Warm wind from south collided with the frozen north wind causing thunder, lightening and rain... It pounded the ice and snow into water filling the frozen rivers... Torrents of water began surging over the slick ice gaining speed... The force of the water melted the ice and mud. It released the debris with such power, it crushed everything in its path... I am the voice of the ancients, listen... This is the fourth book in the series
Listen as I tell you what the voices of the ancients say, they keep whispering to me... the story continues in Beringia where the Arctic Ocean meets the Bering Sea. During the ice age twenty thousand years ago, ice formed over the land which lowered the sea level. It briefly exposed a passageway between the two continents, it was unpredictable and dangerous......
Echoing through time are the voices of ancient people telling us about God. From Mesopotamia and Egypt 5000 years ago, often from even earlier oral traditions, every civilization has been inspired to tell us about God. Their voices vary widely and even conflict.Is there a common message that they thought was so important that they had to pass it on? In this book, the ancient voices speak. This study follows the thread of the basic religious concepts of law, mercy, and love that are prominent in many religions. Major religions around the world are investigated up to the launch of the Common Era when most religions had been developed, including religions that later developed independently such as the Mayan.These are messages refined by the fire of experience through the ages. The repeated messages collectively bear the tests of validity.This study also looks at the many methods we use to try to understand God and religious literature. Is the nature of God reflected in what he asks of us? The premise is that it is.By understanding the nature of God, perhaps we can filter out the many competing voices that tell us that God stands for such things as the murder of innocents and destruction.The very nature of religion is illuminated in the light of the voices from the ages. But is ancient religion a path that we have lost, or does history hammer out newer voices to bear the truth of new experience as people try to understand their relationship with God?Reading type: ScholarlyAbout the author: Dorian Scott Cole is an independent, cross-disciplinary scholar with education and experience in psychology, philosophy, religion, language, visual semiotics, and technology.

Twelve Voices from Greece and Rome by Christopher Pelling,Maria Wyke Pdf
Twelve Voices from Greece and Rome is a book for all readers who want to know more about the literature that underpins Western civilization. Chistopher Pelling and Maria Wyke provide a vibrant and distinctive introduction to twelve of the greatest authors from ancient Greece and Rome, writers whose voices still resonate strongly across the centuries: Homer, Sappho, Herodotus, Euripides, Thucydides, Plato, Caesar, Cicero, Virgil, Horace, Juvenal and Tacitus. To what vital ideas do these authors give voice? And why are we so often drawn to what they say even in modern times? Twelve Voices investigates these tantalizing questions, showing how these great figures from classical antiquity still address some of our most fundamental concerns in the world today (of war and courage, dictatorship and democracy, empire, immigration, city life, art, madness, irrationality, and religious commitment), and express some of our most personal sentiments (about family and friendship, desire and separation, grief and happiness). These twelve classical voices can sound both compellingly familiar and startlingly alien to the twenty-first century reader. Yet they remain suggestive and inspiring, despite being rooted in their own times and places, and have profoundly affected the lives of those prepared to listen to them right up to the present day.
Leonel Anglian was born of greatness he never wanted. So he threw it away for his freedom. Leo's father and grandfather, Daleon and Leoric Anglian, were paragons of their era, great warrior-generals of Ellaria who helped free the southern kingdom of Rolanse from the unstoppable orc invasion during the Rolanse Liberation War. Leo's path was set for him to follow in their footsteps to become the next great warrior of Ellaria. Until his grandfather died, and his father was cast out in exile for trying to free the very orcs he fought against. Leo's mother, left alone to raise him, died of illness not long after. Across the sea, Kaejic Bloodwolf, orc Chieftain of the Bloodwolf tribe, fights with every breath for greatness. Kaejic seeks to restore honor to his people, to face the Anglian family in combat and pave the way for his people's return to their homeland they had fled from, cast out by the human kingdoms after the Rolanse Liberation war. On the day Leo's mother died, Leo decided he didn't give a damn about legacy or greatness. He threw away his place in Ellarian court, his fear, and all his worries, only seeking to enjoy his life. Even if life was a ruthless bastard. Leo became an excavator, someone who digs up relics of the Ancients to sell to the Cantry church, in order to explore the world and try to uncover the vast buried secrets of the Ancients that all cultures of Demarest sought after, the forgotten histories of their ancestors. And it hasn't been going very well. He and his companions in the Stonewright Excavation company spend most of their time flat broke, traveling from place to place trying to dig up something of value in long-picked over digsites. But Leo has been loving every carefree minute of it all the same. Until the day Leo stumbles onto a buried Chapel of the Ancients that hadn't been seen for thousands of years. And within it, an ancient tome that would shake the very foundations of civilization, rewriting the history that had been known to all the kinsmen of the world. And with that tome, Leo is awakened to the true history of the Ancients, and to the darkness lurking in the shadows of his world. Kaejic Bloodwolf, seeing visions of standing face to face with Leonel Anglian and his people's return to their homeland, is coming to find him. The hunt for these ancient tomes, and for Leo himself, begins.
Edited by one of the most renowned scholars in the field, Voices of Ancient Philosophy: An Introductory Reader is a unique and accessible introduction to the richness of ancient philosophy. Featuring a topical--as opposed to chronological--organization, this text introduces students to the wide range of approaches and traditions in ancient philosophy. In each section Annas presents the ancient debates on a particular philosophical topic, drawing on a greater diversity of ancient sources than a chronological approach allows. The book is divided into six sections: Fate and Freedom; Reason and Emotion; Knowledge, Belief, and Skepticism; Metaphysical Questions; How Should You Live?; and Society and the State. Annas includes a generous selection of the works of Plato and Aristotle, as well as those of the Stoics, Epicureans, and Skeptics. She also includes selections from less familiar philosophers and from authors in whose works philosophical issues arise, such as poets, medical writers, historians, and Jewish and Christian writers. The volume features biographical sketches of the philosophers, a timeline, and short discussions of the major movements in ancient philosophy. An excellent text for courses in ancient philosophy and history of philosophy, Voices of Ancient Philosophy: An Introductory Reader will also be of interest to scholars and general readers.

Late Ancient Knowing by Catherine M. Chin,Moulie Vidas Pdf
"Late Ancient Knowing explores how people in late antiquity went about knowing their world and how this knowing shaped late ancient lives. Each essay is dedicated to a single concept--'Animal,' 'Demon,' 'Countryside,' 'Christianization,' 'God'--studying the ways in which individuals and societies in this period created and interacted with visible and invisible realities. Rather than narrating late ancient history based on facts defensible in modern historical terms, these essays attempt to create histories based on what are now considered late ancient fictions, the now-discarded paradigms of late ancient thought"--Provided by publisher.
