Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Man Before History' offers a compelling and educational overview of the earliest stages of human existence. This work takes readers on a journey through the deep past, exploring the era before the advent of written records and documenting the slow, arduous rise of civilization. Mary E. Boyle synthesizes the archaeological and paleontological findings of the early 20th century to present a clear picture of how primitive humans lived, hunted, and survived in a changing world. The book details the evolution of early technologies, from simple flint tools to more complex implements of the Bronze Age. It also examines the cultural milestones of our ancestors, including the creation of remarkable cave paintings and the development of early social and ritual practices. By focusing on the daily lives and environmental challenges faced by prehistoric peoples, 'Man Before History' provides a foundational understanding of the common heritage of humanity. With its accessible style and focus on scientific discovery, the work serves as an excellent introduction to human origins. It highlights the enduring curiosity of the human mind and the persistence of our species through millennia of prehistory, making it a timeless piece of scientific storytelling.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.

Hardcover. Zustand: Near Fine. 1st Edition. London: Trianon, 1955. Number 28 of a first edition, printed on rag paper signed by Henri Breuil limited to 100 copies (pp. 31, illustrations). Folio (37.5 x 29 cm) in original half leather over tan cloth, gilt titles, deckle edges. With a coloured frontispiece, a small map in text, 13 coloured plates (2 folding, images numbered I-XXII), and 5 collotype plates with photographs (1 folding, each plate with several photographs). The so-called "White Lady", a rock face painting near the foot of Brandberg mountain in Namibia, was discovered in 1918 by the German explorer Reinhard Maack. The book's text describes the apparent origin of the painting and the researchers' excavation methods. The painting shows a ritual dance, and the drawing is in fact a representation of a male shaman. It was Henri Breuil (1877-1961) who coined the name "White Lady" and suggested a relation to paintings at Knossos a bit of fanciful archaeology which implied a visitation by Mediterranean travelers (Maack suggested a warrior figure, but is was 1918 and there were still quite a few still around). Small abrasions to bottom edge and one tip, front hinge just starting; otherwise a Near Fine copy. Signed by Author(s).…
