This book delves into the fascinating world of early human culture, exploring the development of civilization through its various stages. The author argues that understanding the practices of ancient and primitive societies is essential for understanding the present, as seemingly mundane aspects of modern life, such as earrings, have roots in much older and more primitive cultural practices. The book examines how humans communicate, exploring the gesture language and picture writing as early forms of expression, while also analyzing the development of speech and writing. By comparing myths and customs across different cultures, the author aims to trace historical connections and unravel the shared origins of various traditions. Ultimately, the book provides a unique perspective on the evolution of human thought and behavior, highlighting the profound influence of the past on the present.
