Ancient Mythologies India, Persia, Babylon, Egypt by Charles Kovacs

The meaning of some of the world's great myths  and legends springs to life in this collection of stories, retold here  for children. Through the epic adventures of colorful characters—from  kings and beggars to gods and demons—the reader may glimpse the ancient  wisdom of early humankind.  Spanning the centuries from Atlantis  to the civilizations of India, Persia, Babylonia, and Egypt, the author  portrays human development, from primitive hunters to builders of  magnificent cities and the great pyramids. Buddha, Krishna, Rama,  Zarathustra, Gilgamesh, Isis, and Osiris are just a few of the lively  participants in the unfolding historical narrative.      Book Details Format:       Paperback      ISBN:       9780946206520      Pages:       184      Publication Date:       September 7th 2007      Publisher:       Wynstones Press
