Evidences and commonalities explored from ancient man around the globe! Why structures echoing the Tower of Babel have been recreated on almost every continent and major culture What artifacts and archaeology; technology and innovation; really reveal about the origin of mankind Why many biblical symbols (rainbows; human sacrifice; mountains; the Son/ sun worship) were; and continue to be; distorted in pagan religious practices What the historical record reveals about Satan’s “counterfeit†of God’s plan for humanity All over the world there are similar findings of ancient religions; cities and towers; world travel; advanced astronomy; and civilized government. Over the course of two years; a team of researchers from Jackson Hole Bible College has worked to bring together the different pieces of the convoluted mystery and history of ancient man. Hours of researching; trips to various sites around North and Central America; visits to museums; and meetings with experts have provided the team with an overwhelming amount of evidence for the intelligence of these early innovators. A jumble of anomalies and magnificent structures continue to confound archaeology and anthropology today; yet as the dots are connected; one finds history as described in the biblical record.

2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. Worth reading for Russian avant-garde art historyBy S. Smith-PeterThis is a very interesting book about the collector of one of the world's largest collections of Russian and Soviet avant-garde art. George Costakis; ethnically a Greek but culturally a Russian; as the title suggests; worked in the Canadian embassy during the mid-20th century and also collected Malevich; Rozanova; Filonov; Popova; Rodchenko; and Kandinsky during a time when the art was completely devalued and seen as worthless. The most interesting part of the book deals with Costakis' collecting; which can be seen as saving the art. For example; some paintings had been used as building material for dachas or for children's treehouses when Costakis rescued them.The author of the book; however; isn't a professional writer; and it shows. Parts of the book are awkward and don't really go together. He did conduct extensive interviews with Costakis; some of which are interesting for Soviet history more broadly; as are Costakis' drawing of a gulag camp at Kotlas.Overall; however; if you have an interest in Russian and Soviet avant-garde art; this is definitely a book worth having.
