About This Item
1884 Museum of Antiquity EGYPT Pagan Occult Rituals Esoteric Babylon POMPEII
A description of ancient life including the employments, amusements, customs and habits, the cities, palaces, monuments and tombs, the literature, and fine arts of 3,000 years ago.
This incredible world history book includes histories from all corners of the world! From musical instruments used in Jewish culture, to home utensils and jewelry worn in ancient Egypt all the way to the furnishings of the house of Emperor Joseph II, this work is filled with woodcut engravings illustrating the content. One of the most intriguing aspects is the 19th-century perspective on the ruins of Pompeii, the ancient city that had only been discovered a hundred years or so prior to printing!
