A New Golden Age of Archeology
This book uses both succinct, informative essays and beautiful, detailed photography to reveal how recent archeological discoveries in the ancient country of Armenia have transformed our understanding of the origins of human civilization and humanity itself. It also tells the story of a heroic team of Armenian archeologists who have singlehandedly created a new golden age of archeology in their country. Their work demonstrates that Armenia has hosted a continuous human presence for at least 2 million years. They have succeeded in documenting the evolution of humanity and human culture across this vast span of time in minute detail. Their discoveries include the oldest known winemaking complex, the recreation of the first wines, the oldest known work of art, the oldest shoe yet discovered, and one of the oldest known religious documents. This book chronicles their achievements in a manner that lets the reader become part of the process of exploration and feel the excitement of discovery.

Constantinople
Beneath and in the midst of the modern metropolis of Istanbul lie the remnants of another city, called Constantinople. For over a thousand years, from May 11, 330 to May 29, 1453, it was the cultural and spiritual capital of Christendom. Throughout the Middle Ages the city that its inhabitants also called New Rome served as a living bridge to the civilizations of Classical Greece and Rome, transmitting their intellectual riches to both the West and East and ultimately laying the foundations of the Renaissance. Constantinople: Eye of the World is a meditation in photographs on the greatest city of the ancient and medieval worlds. In the 11th century, when the population of Rome was 30,000, Constantinople and its suburbs were home to perhaps a million people. It was the only major city of the ancient world to survive intact to the end of the Middle Ages, preserving the intellectual heritage of Greece and Rome. Napoleon Bonaparte once said that if the world had a capital, it would be Constantinople. The City's founder, St. Constantine the Great, would surely have agreed. Its medieval Greek inhabitants called their City ho ophthalmos tou kosmou - the Eye of the World.
