Publisher's Note:

Hey, fantastic readers! Your feedback means the world to us, and it's time for some intriguing insights!

    1. Our lead author, Vida Mercer, is not just an expert, but also a second-generation homeschooler and a savvy curriculum developer. Believe us, she rocks! Plus, our historians are human fact-checkers, so you can trust every word!
    2. Let's clear things up: Sumerians, Akkadians, Assyrians, Babylonians? Not the same crew! While they shared cultural elements in ancient Mesopotamia, it would be incorrect to say that the Sumerians, Akkadians, Assyrians, and Babylonians were the same people. They had distinct languages, political systems, and historical identities, even though they shared many cultural elements such as religion, law, and writing traditions over time. Understanding these nuances is crucial when studying the history of Mesopotamia.
    3. This book is all about the facts, folks! We delve into the fascinating civilizations and their religions - yes, including Christianity. No creationism here, though we do chat about our early human pals. Just to be clear, this is not a faith-based read, but a deep dive into the wonderful world of civilizations!

If you want a curriculum that keeps your students engaged, keep reading!

What is history, really? At first glance, you might think this is a silly question. History is the study of the past: who did what, when, and where it happened. That's all true! But history is also so much more.

History is a story, like a pick-your-own-adventure story. It's a lens you look through to understand where you are now, how you got here, and where you might be going in the future. As Pearl S. Buck once said, "If you want to understand today, you have to search yesterday."A thousand years from now, historians will be reading e-books and Tweets and watching YouTube and TikTok to learn about what life must have been like in the early 2000s!

The scope of this book focuses on Mesopotamia and the Mediterranean regions due to the volume of information covered. However, we explore other ancient civilizations around the world in other books.

This book is not just for homeschoolers. We hope it will be used by any parent wanting to give their child knowledge of and an appreciation for ancient history and provide perspective on why studying history is essential. Use it in your curriculum or as a supplement. Hand it to your kid for rainy-day reading. Share it as a family read-aloud. History has gotten a bad rap for being dry and dull. We think it deserves to be read as the fascinating, important, sometimes even hilarious subject it is!

This book contains black and white line drawings of the color images provided as a free download. Many images are either photographs of actual artifacts or drawings or paintings of actual artifacts. As a result, some of these images are anatomically correct. Please consider this when choosing to purchase this product. The target age of this book is 10 and up.
