In this block, we will travel the evolutionary arc of culture beginning in Ancient Persia when nomadic life became agrarian. In those distant times, the cultivation of wheat, roses, various fruits, livestock, and other things accelerated. We saw the first stone circles also appearing.
Following Persia, we’ll move through the Fertile Crescent and the origins of so much that still informs human civilization today – clocks, calendars, irrigation, practical geometry, astronomy, and more. Then, we will conclude with the intriguing world of Ancient Egypt and all its mysteries – mummies, magic, pyramids, sphinxes, and even a female pharaoh whom history tried to erase.
