Brossura. Condition: new. Brescia, 2025; br., pp. 246, cm 15x21. L'avvincente storia del dio Rafa-El si svolge sulla traccia narrata dai miti del passato. Leggende sumere, egiziane, greche e americane prendono consistenza: diventano una realtà vissuta dove dèi e uomini convivono nell'Età dell'oro, sino a quando sconvolgimenti cosmici infrangono ogni equilibrio. Il Diluvio Universale devasta infatti la Terra, travolgendo interi popoli e città e concludendo L'Età dell'oro. La storia di Rafa-El continua nel secondo libro Guerre di uomini e dèi. Gli amori di Rafa-El si intrecciano con conflitti e drammi tra uomini e dèi. La storia struggente di Iside e Osiride, la guerra di Troia, il faraone Akhenaton, Mosè e l'esodo vengono narrati sotto una luce nuova, inattesa. Dopo giochi di potere finiti male, gli dèi partono dalla Terra, lasciando ciò che avevano costruito ma Rafa-El si ribella e sceglie di restare. La storia di Rafa-El e degli dèi termina qui ma è leggenda o realtà. Libro. …

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. What if the greatest mysteries of ancient civilizations were not myths-but engineering achievements?Archeoengineering explores the past through an unconventional lens, applying modern engineering principles to ancient monuments and artifacts in order to uncover the technologies that shaped early human civilization. The story of early civilizations is often told as a slow and steady progression: from rough stone tools to monumental architecture, from small farming communities to great cities. It is a neat, reassuring narrative-one that seems to explain everything.But when we look more closely at the artifacts left behind by ancient societies, that story begins to unravel. Some granite carvings appear to require diamond-level hardness; stone blocks weighing hundreds of tons were moved and placed with astonishing accuracy; and ancient structures are precisely aligned with stars and constellations, based on calculations far more advanced than we usually credit to these cultures.Perhaps we are simply asking the wrong questions-or looking at the past in the wrong way.In Archeoengineering, Stefano Verani invites the reader to explore a different perspective. Instead of viewing ancient remains purely as symbolic or ritual objects, he approaches them as technical products of highly organized societies. By drawing on modern disciplines such as reverse engineering, materials science, mechanics, and astronomy, the author reveals how many ancient constructions follow clear technical and logical principles that have long gone unnoticed.From the pyramids of Giza to the enigmatic structures of Peru, from the mystery of Atlantis to the Ark of the Covenant, each chapter revisits one of archaeology's great unanswered questions. Through the eyes of an engineer, monuments and artifacts are reinterpreted as genuine technical documents-objects designed with purpose, knowledge, and precision.What emerges is a vision of history that is less linear and far more surprising, challenging conventional explanations and encouraging us to rethink what we know about the origins of human knowledge.Because perhaps, to truly understand who we were, we must learn to read what the ancients left written in stone.
