Legend: The Genesis of Civilisation

David Rohl continues his quest to reach the historical kernal lying at the heart of some of the greatest unsolved problems and mysteries of Old World history and archaeology. He reveals what really happened in seven famous myths and legends bequeathed to us by the ancients and shows us that the passage of time has not wiped away all the evidence, and it is possible to reach the reality behind the legends- *The true location of the garden of Eden and the origins of Adam and Eve *Paradise is discovered on a desert island in the Persian Gulf *The mysterious origins of the first pharaohs are revealed *The lost tomb of Pharoah Amenhotep I is unearthed *The body of the heretic pharoah Akhenaten is identified *The true site of Solomon's Temple is located in Jerusalem David Rohl's pursuit for historical truth also encompasses the fate of the Ark of the Covenant and his questioning of the chronology of ancient Greek history - when did the Trojan War actually occur?
