The Ancient East by D.G. Hogarth is a comprehensive study of the ancient civilizations that flourished in the eastern part of the world. The book covers the history, culture, and society of the ancient Near East, including Mesopotamia, Egypt, and Persia. Hogarth delves into the political and social structures of these civilizations, as well as their art, architecture, and religion. He also explores the interactions between these civilizations, including their trade and military conflicts. The book is richly illustrated with maps, photographs, and drawings, providing readers with a vivid and detailed understanding of the ancient East. Overall, The Ancient East is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history and culture of this fascinating region.The earliest of these centres of power to develop foreign empire was also that destined, after many vicissitudes, to hold it latest, because it was the best endowed by nature to repair the waste which empire entails. This was the region which would be known later as Babylonia from the name of the city which in historic times dominated it, but, as we now know, was neither an early seat of power nor the parent of its distinctive local civilization. This honour, if due to any one city, should be credited to Ur, whose also was the first and the only truly Babylonian empire.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
