Sinopsis

Ancient Calendars explores how early civilizations tracked time, revealing remarkable ingenuity and providing insights into their societies. These ancient systems weren't just about measuring days; they deeply influenced agriculture, religion, and social structures. For instance, the Egyptian solar calendar dictated planting seasons, while the Mayan calendar intertwined with cosmology and prophecy. The book navigates this historical, social, and scientific context, requiring no specialized knowledge. It progresses from basic timekeeping concepts to detailed examinations of calendars like the Roman one, which eventually evolved into our Gregorian calendar. By understanding these calendrical systems, we gain a deeper appreciation for the intellectual capabilities and worldviews of past civilizations. This book uniquely examines ancient calendars from technical, cultural, and religious perspectives. It highlights how these systems reflect a civilization's relationship with the cosmos and continue to inform our understanding of cultural identity and historical change.

    Australian Frontier Wars The:...

    A land of almost 3 million square miles has lain since time immemorial on the southern flank of the planet, so isolated that it remained entirely outside of European knowledge until 1770. However, the first human footprints on this vast territory were felt 70,000 years earlier, as people began to cross the periodic land bridges and the short sea crossings from Southeast Asia. 
    The history of the indigenous inhabitants of Australia, known in contemporary anthropology as the “Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people of Australia,” is a complex and continually evolving field of study, and it has been colored by politics. For generations after the arrival of whites in Australia, the Aboriginal people were disregarded and marginalized, largely because they offered little in the way of a labor resource, and they occupied land required for European settlement. 
    At the same time, it is a misconception that indigenous Australians meekly accepted the invasion of their country by the British, for they did not. They certainly resisted, but as far as colonial wars during that era went, the frontier conflicts of Australia did not warrant a great deal of attention. Indigenous Australians were hardly a warlike people, and without central organization, or political cohesion beyond scattered family groups, they succumbed to the orchestrated advance of white settlement with passionate, but futile resistance. In many instances, aggressive clashes between the two groups simply gave the white colonists reasonable cause to inflict a style of genocide on the Aborigines that stood in the way of progress.

    Firefights, mortar attacks, and friendly fire were all part of the experiences of an infantryman in the jungles of the Central Highlands of Vietnam. But bugs, leeches, exhaustion, swamps, accidents, snakes, C-rations, digging in, cutting overhead cover, grief, humor, camaraderie, rain, thirst, impressive weapons, useless weapons, care packages, and much, much more filled up most of the infantryman's one-year tour in Vietnam. 
     
     
     
    Daily life as an infantryman in Vietnam was a completely foreign experience compared to the lives most young American soldiers knew growing up. The war and the jungle saw to that. Soldiers had to cope and adapt. Almost all did. 
     
     
     
    In this book, the author tells many stories of events he personally experienced during his year in Vietnam. Through these stories, he aptly describes the daily life and shared experiences of soldiers in the 4th Infantry Division in the jungles of Vietnam's Central Highlands. 
     
     
     
    Anyone who has a personal connection with someone who served as an infantryman in Vietnam or simply has curiosity about infantry life in Vietnam will better understand, after listening to this book, the answer to the question "What was daily life like for them there?"
