  The ancient Israelites introduced one of the first monotheistic religions in the world. And it is still practiced today! 
  The ancient Israelites emerged from Mount Sinai onto the hilly plains of Canaan and established a civilization that endured for hundreds of years.  
  Even when the Israelites fell to incursions from foreign invaders and were subjected to torture and exile, they held fast to their belief system. They emerged from the Babylonian captivity as the people of Yehud. With the aid of Cyrus the Great and the Achaemenid Empire, they rebuilt their sacred temple and got back on their feet. 
  However, the Greeks and the Romans presented unique challenges to the Judeans. The Hellenization period threatened the foundation of Judaism and the commitment of the Jews to their faith due to forced conversions and the practice of Jewish customs being punishable by death. Regardless, the Jews persevered, and their faith and their steadfastness hold great significance today. 
  This audiobook offers a deep dive into the history of the ancient Israelites and how they rose from nomadic tribes to establish a kingdom and a unique identity in Judea. 
  By listening to this audiobook, you will discover the following: How the ancient Israelites ended up in Canaan and began to build a civilizationThe establishment of the United Kingdom of IsraelThe split of the United Kingdom of Israel and the Babylonian invasion of the Kingdom of JudeaThe Achaemenid liberation of the Jews and the formation of Yehud MedinataThe period and process of Hellenization commenced by the Greeks and the resulting Maccabean Revolt, which gave birth to the Hasmonean dynasty The end of the Hasmoneans and the formation of the Herodian dynastyAnd so much more!

  Sundaland and Doggerland: The...

  By the time the Pleistocene Epoch ended around 12,000 years ago, Homo sapiens had become one of the most significant species on the planet. 	It was also near the end of that period of time that modern humans began to gradually populate what would become Europe, Asia, and the Americas, eventually becoming the inheritors of the Paleolithic era and the only human species to make it into the Neolithic era. 	The cold Pleistocene temperatures lowered water levels across the planet, exposing land that was not there before or after the period. At the same time, significant regions of the planet were very different during the Pleistocene, including Southeast Asia, particularly the modern islands of Bali, Borneo, Sumatra, and the Malay Peninsula, roughly equivalent to parts of Indonesia, Malaysia, and Thailand. This region, which modern scholars refer to as Sunda or Sundaland, was unique because all of it was connected by land, meaning today’s islands were once part of a contiguous subcontinent, and in terms of the people, flora, and fauna, it was very different than it is today.  
  Among the most significant water displacement phenomena in the Western world was Doggerland on the northern European continent. The notable inundation occurred in both a steady and eruptive fashion covering a vast stretch of former tundra, a land bridge between today’s British Isles and the European continent. The event brought about the modern English Channel and an expanded North Sea, and unlike the early supercontinents, the inundation of Doggerland took place after the appearance of people. Incrementally submerged since roughly 18,000 years ago as the climate warmed, the patch of sea between Britain and Europe is the subject of much recent scientific scrutiny.

  The origins of ancient Egyptian civilization can be traced back to the unification of Upper and Lower Egypt around 3100 BCE. This pivotal event, credited to the legendary Pharaoh Narmer (also known as Menes), set the stage for one of the most enduring and influential cultures in human history. The unification marked the beginning of the Early Dynastic Period, a time when Egypt's first pharaohs established the framework for the country’s political, religious, and social systems. 
  The Early Dynastic Period laid the foundation for the powerful centralized government that would come to define Egypt. The kings of this era solidified their authority by consolidating control over both the Upper and Lower Nile Valleys, establishing cities and building monumental architecture, such as the earliest royal tombs. This period was characterized by the development of hieroglyphic writing, which enabled the preservation of royal decrees, religious texts, and monumental inscriptions. 
  As Egypt's civilization evolved, it entered the Old Kingdom period, often referred to as the "Age of the Pyramids." During this time, Egypt reached its peak in terms of architectural achievements, most notably the construction of the Great Pyramids at Giza. The Old Kingdom saw the consolidation of the pharaohs’ divine status as intermediaries between the gods and the people. The power of the pharaohs was reinforced by their role in overseeing monumental construction projects and religious rituals that were believed to sustain cosmic order.

  Healing Childhood trauma 2-1...

  If you were sexually abused as a child or minor and its consequences still affect your life, read this. 
  You are no longer alone. For years, I didn’t understand the source of my anger. Past and present were tangled, leaving me feeling rejected and abandoned. To find clarity, I tried several therapeutic approaches, alone and in groups. The secret buried in my memory poisoned my life. All I wanted was to feel better, but I didn’t know how. 
  Years passed before I discovered the truth. My life felt like a windswept leaf—frustration and anger ruled me. It wasn’t until I hit rock bottom—overreacting to comments, without a job or money, asked to move out—that my body reminded me of the trauma I had buried: childhood sexual abuse. 
  Common behaviors among victims include: 
  Trust issues 
  Taking care of others at their own expense 
  Persistent anger or panic 
  Overreacting to remarks 
  Living aimlessly or trying to escape 
  Inability to focus on real needs or make decisions 
  Difficulty identifying priorities 
  Possible post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) 
  Talking about such pain is difficult, yet its effects often lead to destructive behavior. Joining a support group helped me understand that victims of childhood sexual abuse are survivors. Through readings and exercises with the group, I learned to recognize my wounds and name long-repressed emotions. 
  If you believe your life could be better without anger or shame, this book is for you.
