What happened in history?

When you read this book in your hands, do not believe that it tells you the story of two thousand five hundred centuries of our life on this earth. It takes you from the oldest human-like fossil to the end of the Roman Empire. From the small-skulled: thick-skulled Java man and the Cho-Kutian man. Small-headed, strong, great, to the Roman Caesars, who were beautiful and noble. During this long journey that lasted 250,000 years, man moved from the cave and the grotto to the magnificent palaces. Passing through the civilizations of India, Assyria, Babylon, Egypt, Persians, and Greeks. He does not pass through all these centuries, wandering through the paths of events, the paths of politics, or the tragedies of wars, the rise and fall of states, and the hostility of people against one another. Or stumbling between the statements of historians and narrators and the exaggerations of writers and poets. And the calls of people of religions and the ambitions of people of homelands, but rather walking among the ruins of human beings and the remains of the current eras, guided by monuments that do not lie, monuments that cannot be claimed, and ruins that do not cover what is behind them.
