  Did you know that Western civilization has influenced the lives of almost everyone alive today? 
  What do you know about Western civilization? It might sound like a funny question to ask, but a lot of people don’t realize how much the West has impacted the world. The values of Western civilization have influenced laws, people’s sense of individuality, and even our morals. 
  This audiobook will trace Western civilization back to its roots. In this epic quest, we head all the way back to Greece when Greek philosophers like Socrates and Plato pondered the very meaning of life. Explore the depths of knowledge that were probed by Greek schools of thought, such as the Stoics and the Cynics. 
  Was it better to stoically grin and bear the troubles of life as the Stoics advised, or was it better to simply shrug one’s shoulders and declare everything to be pointless, stupid, and absurd? 
  And in the middle of these philosophers’ quest, a missionary from Judea named Paul of Tarsus stepped in to spread the “good news” of the Gospels. Christianity and other schools of thought converged, and the Roman Empire helped to facilitate the spread of these ideas far and wide. Soon, the foundations for Western civilization had been firmly established. 
  These ideas would later undergo renaissances, reformations, and scientific revolutions, but the basic foundation has remained in place. Here, in this audiobook, we explore all of the fascinating aspects of the great framework upon which our modern Western civilization rests. 
  In this audiobook, you will learn the following:Greek philosophical and scientific discoveriesThe convergence of Greco-Roman and Christian beliefsHow Western civilization transformed during the Middle AgesAnd much more!

  Underground City of Derinkuyu...

  Editors Charles River

  Among all the early Iron Age people from the Near East who inherited the geopolitical vacuum of power left by the Sea Peoples invasions, the Phrygians are perhaps one of the most misunderstood. They built a powerful and wealthy kingdom, but were overshadowed by their more powerful and wealthier neighbors, the Lydians. From the early 7th century BCE until the middle of the 6th century BCE, the Lydians played an important role in the history of the eastern Mediterranean region as they took on the role of middleman between the empires of the Near East and the emerging Hellenic civilization in Greece. From their capital in Sardis, the Lydian kings traded and made alliances and war with numerous kings, tyrants, and generals, which ultimately cemented their role as a brief but historically important people and kingdom in the ancient world.  
  	It seems that around this time, one of the most unique sites in antiquity was being constructed in central Turkey, an archaeological mystery modern scholars have only recently begun to uncover. Known as Derinkuyu in the Turkish language, the archaeological site is as expansive as any other in Turkey, but its expanse is more vertical than horizontal, which is what makes it so unusual. The lost city of Derinkuyu descends to depths of nearly 300 feet under the wind-swept cliffs and rock formations of the otherwise desolate region known as Cappadocia. Cappadocia’s landscape looks otherworldly, windswept, and unlivable in places, and if not for modern technologies, including electricity, sanitation, and irrigation, it surely would be considered inhabitable by many people.  
  	More recently, Derinkuyu has caught the attention of tourists, while academics have started to ask serious questions about this important site. Recent studies of Derinkuyu have helped illuminate how a city able to house 20,000 or more people could exist in antiquity, particularly with regard to logistics.
