Excerpt from The Story of Extinct Civilizations of the East In the present century two events, which at the time seemed unimportant, have vastly increased our knowledge regarding several very early kingdoms and empires which, to the ancient and mediæval historians, were known only by name. In 1802, the Rosetta Stone was brought to England, and presented by George III. to the British Museum. Only a rude block of black basalt, though called "a priceless jewel" by the archæologists, it bears an inscription in three languages; and as soon as one of these, written in "hieroglyphs," was, by means of the other two, interpreted by Young and Champollion, a key was put in our hands to open the sealed book of Egypt's mighty past by reading the records on her numberless monuments. Thus the "wisdom of Egypt," so long inscrutable, became known, and a new science arose called Egyptology. The second event was in 1842, when M. Botta was sent as French envoy to the banks of the Tigris, and began to dig for Assyrian antiquities. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Ancient Civilization an Introduction to Modern History Ask yourself as you begin reading this book what is the first thing in life that-you can remember.

And yet, at the very beginning of this book, you must imagine that your memory extends ov'er thou sands and thousands of years, for the beginning of man's history belongs to a time as long ago as that. Our knowledge of the story of man's existence on earth has been gathered slowly. Here and there in all parts of Europe, Asia, Africa, and America, a few bones of men and of animals, a few spearheads and arrowheads, a few fragments of clothing and cooking utensils have been found. From these, and from the rude pictures which men scratched on stones thousands of years ago, we have been able to piece together a record which carries back the story of man's life those thousands of years; We have learned something about his. Method of making himself shelter and clothing, something about the way he fought with the wild animals of the forest, something, about the way he gathered his food and fed and reared his children.
