William Potter: Unexplained Mysteries of the Ancient World
Mysteries of the Ancient World examines some of the most bizarre, surprising and unexplained phenomena of the ancient world. Ranging from cold cases millennia in the making to the sudden, baffling disappearances of entire civilizations to the creation of mysterious monuments, it searches for the truth behind these remarkable stories. With a careful analysis of the various theories that have been used over the years to try and understand these curious occurrences, the author gets to the bottom of what really happened.
This volume includes such fascinating cases as:
• The mysteries surrounding the life and death of Tutankhamun
• The strange underground city of Derinkuyu, Turkey
• The river of mercury lying beneath the pyramids of Teotihuacan in Mexico
• The coded messages of the Voynich manuscript
• The disappearance of Rome's 9th Legion
• The mysterious origins of Stone Henge, UK
William Potter is a Leeds University graduate and has been a writer and editor of educational and activity books for both adults and children for more than two decades. His published works include a history of engineers, railway and science museum handbooks, titles on prehistoric life, Vikings, the environment, new technology, guides to drawing comic-book and fantasy art, along with numerous science and mathematics titles for school-age readers.
