Excerpt from The Migrations of Early Culture: A Study of the Significance of the Geographical, Distribution of the Practice of Mummification, as Evidence of the Migrations of Peoples and the Spread of Certain Customs and Beliefs
Only a very small fraction of the evidence is set forth in the present work. Much of the most illuminating information has only come to the author's knowledge since this memoir was in the press; and a vast amount of the data, especially that relating to Europe, India and China, is too intimately intertwined with the effects of other cultures to be discussed and dissociated from them.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the fascinating practice of mummification and its surprising connection to the spread of ancient cultures across the globe. The author argues that mummification, far from being a localized custom, was an integral part of a larger cultural complex, which he terms "heliolithic." This complex, he shows, included megalithic monument building, sun worship, serpent worship, and a range of other distinctive practices, beliefs, and traditions. By tracing the geographical distribution of these elements, the author reveals a network of ancient migrations that connected distant civilizations and shaped the development of early human societies. The book challenges traditional assumptions about the independent evolution of cultures, revealing a more interconnected world where knowledge and ideas traveled across continents, influencing the customs, beliefs, and even the physical characteristics of diverse peoples. The author's insights into the power of cultural exchange and its impact on ancient civilizations offer a compelling new perspective on the history of humankind. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 9781330394373_0
