The History of al-Ṭabarī Vol. 1
Volume I of the thirty-eight volume translation of Ṭabarī's great History begins with the creation of the world and ends with the time of Noah and the Flood. It not only brings a vast amount of speculation about the early history of mankind into sharp Muslim focus, but it also synchronizes ancient Iranian ideas about the prehistory of mankind with those inspired by the Qur'an and the Bible. The volume is thus an excellent guide to the cosmological views of many of Ṭabarī's contemporaries. The translator, Franz Rosenthal, one of the world's foremost scholars of Arabic, has also written an extensive introduction to the volume that presents all the facts known about Ṭabarī's personal a...

Ancient India
Ancient Indian history has always been mystical; more so a virtual utopia for historians and researchers. This scholarly text narrates the ancient Indian history from the genesis of civilisations to the early middle ages. It examines the sources, chronology of civilisations and authoritatively details the facts, feats, triumphs and religious crusades of the period. It unveils the rich cultural, religious and social diversity that is uniquely and peculiarly Indian. The book is of immense use to students and scholars of history and for candidates preparing for civil services examinations.
The Phoenician Origin of Britons Scots and Anglo-Saxons
L. A. Waddell’s captivating volume explores Britain’s origins and presents new historical evidence from ancient Phoenician and Sumerian civilisations. First published in 1924, this work is an exploration of the early history of Britain’s ancestry. Exploring the Britons, Scots, and Anglo-Saxons in the pre-Roman periods, L. A. Waddell transports his readers back to 3000 BC with new historical evidence. The writer presents his historic interpretation of the Newton Stone inscription, found in Aberdeenshire, Scotland, in this fascinating analysis of Anglo-Saxon origin. Despite being a well-known archaeologist, Waddell’s various works on the history of civilisation have caused much controversy and he never gained recognition as a Sumerologist.
Kebenaran dari Timur (Volume 1)
Dalam Buku Kebenaran dari Timur Vol. 1 dan 2, saya fokus mengulas tokoh-tokoh besar yang hadir di dunia sejak masa yang sangat kuno — untuk menjalani peran mereka sebagai "Pemberi dampak besar" dalam perjalanan sejarah umat manusia (dalam hal baik maupun hal buruk). Tema penting seperti asal-usul bahasa (etimologi), kosmologi, serta simbol-simbol — sebagai "instrumen peradaban" yang mendasari terbangunnya peradaban sejak di tahap paling awal — juga saya bahas dalam buku ini. Tidak terlewatkan, interpretasi nubuat dari berbagai tradisi agama, suku dan budaya di dunia. Selain berisi tanda-tanda yang mengawali dimulainya fase akhir zaman, nubuat tersebut juga berisi informasi tentang akan hadirnya satu sosok yang menjalani perannya sebagai tokoh kunci "Penyelamat" di akhir zaman. Satu sosok dengan begitu banyak nama atau sebutan.

The Nazi Occult
In the dark dungeons beneath Nazi Germany, teams of occult experts delved into ancient and forbidden lore, searching for lost secrets of power. This book tells the complete history of the Nazi occult programs, from their quests for the Ark of the Covenant, the Spear of Destiny, and the Holy Grail, through their experiments with lycanthrope and zero-point energy. It also includes information on the shadow war fought in the dying days of the Reich as the Nazis deployed strange flying saucers that battled to save their final stronghold in the Antarctic. For years, the Allied governments worked to keep this information from reaching the public, and sought to discredit those few who dared to seek the truth. Now, using a combination of photography and artwork reconstructions, the true story of the most secret battles of World War II can finally be told.
