Über diesen Titel

Reseña del editor:

Learn amazing facts about the lifestyles and skills of past societies, and how they developed through time. Compare the way farming methods, fashions, sports, religious beliefs and use of language changed from country to country throughout the world. Photographs and drawings of many historical objects and buildings, from axes and sickles to a Stone Age long house and an Indian sweat lodge, help set the themes in context of daily life, place and period. Step-by-step projects such as how to make an ancient Indian board game, Celtic oatcakes and a Japanese theatre mask all bring the past alive. This volume explores the ideas, discoveries and beliefs that have shaped the human race. Packed with full-colour photographs and illustrations this series takes a thematic approach to world history.
