Synopsis

Lost Museum Artifacts explores the dark world of missing cultural heritage, revealing the complex web of theft, conflict, and neglect that silences historical narratives. Learn how countless priceless artifacts vanish, not only disappearing from museums and archaeological sites but also fueling a global crisis of cultural identity. The book highlights the staggering scale of artifact loss, from high-profile museum heists to looting during wartime, showing that the disappearance of these items isn't just about monetary value; it's about erasing history.

 
The book systematically uncovers the mechanics of artifact loss, delving into the roles of smugglers, collectors, and auction houses in the illicit trafficking network. It examines the recovery efforts of law enforcement agencies and organizations like UNESCO, focusing on repatriation and preservation.

 
By combining historical analysis with contemporary case studies, Lost Museum Artifacts offers a unique perspective on the challenges and potential solutions in cultural heritage protection, progressing from defining the threats to proposing practical strategies for improved artifact security and international cooperation.

 
This book is a call to action, urging readers to engage in the preservation of our shared human history.

    This is the story of Dr. Geneva Smitherman, aka "Dr. G," the pioneering linguist often referred to as the "Queen of Black Language." In a series of narrative essays, Dr. G writes eloquently and powerfully about the role of language in social transformation and the academic, intellectual, linguistic, and societal debates that shaped her groundbreaking work as a Black Studies O.G. and a Womanist scholar-activist of African American Language. 
     
     
     
    These eleven essays narrate the development of Dr. G's race, gender, class, and linguistic consciousness as a member of the Black Power Generation of the 1960s and 70s. In My Soul Look Back In Wonder, Dr. G links the personal to the professional and the political, situating the struggles, and successes, of a Black woman in the Academy within the historical experiences and development of her people. 
     
     
     
    As Dr. G enters her eighth decade, in this Black Lives Matter historical moment, she seeks to share the meaning and purpose of a life of study and struggle and its significance for all those who seek racial and social justice today.

    Zoroastrianism: The History and...

    The Sasanian Empire was important for a number of reasons. Besides being the last of three great Persian dynasties, they carried on many Persian cultural traditions relating to religion and kingship. The Sasanians fostered and promoted the native religion of Zoroastrianism to the point of persecuting other religions from time to time. It was during the Sasanian period that the numerous Zoroastrian hymns, prayers, and rituals were collected under one book, known as the Avesta.  
    	Thanks to the Sasanians’ efforts with regard to religion, modern scholars know much more about Zoroastrianism than they would have if the religion continued to disseminate orally. Their efforts also protected Zoroastrian knowledge in later years after the dynasty was long gone and Islam became ascendant in Persia. Zoroastrianism is technically still a living religion today, but the religion is mysterious and not widely known among those who don’t study it, and historians themselves are divided over when the religion’s prophet lived and when the religion was officially adopted in Persia. Zoroastrianism’s historical development has also failed to intrigue significant numbers of people, perhaps due to its geographical location and cultural background. Zoroastrianism developed among the Persian people, who have traditionally not been part of the standard Western, early Islamic, or Far Eastern cultural groupings, and when Persia later became part of the greater Islamic world, it was to the detriment of Zoroastrianism. Finally, Zoroastrianism is a “closed” religion, which has also kept it shrouded in mystery to a certain degree. Although contemporary Zoroastrians are quite open about their faith and willing to help non-Zoroastrian scholars, converts are rarely accepted by the faithful, adding a sense of insularity to the faith.
