Ancient Origins

Recorded history began around 5,000 years ago, and our ancestors left us impressive legacies. Anthropologists, archeologists, scientists and other students of our origins have worked hard to bring this ancient past into our hands. With endless mysteries yet to unravel and infinite speculation around that which time has forever eroded, maybe you'll visit Ancient Egypt, Greece, Rome, the vast regions of Mesopotamia, Mesoamerica, Ancient Asia or Ancient Somewhere. Whatever you pick, enjoy! There is much our ancestors wish to show us.

Add nonfiction books you've read that talk about ancient history (roughly 4500 BC - AD 600) or historical fiction books you've read that take place in those times.
