Fresh Light from the Ancient Monuments - Paperback

by Archibald Henry Sayce (Author)

The object of this is explained by its title, "Fresh Light from the Ancient Monuments-A Sketch of the Most Striking Confirmations of the Bible, From Recent Discoveries in Egypt, Palestine, Assyria, Babylonia, Asia Minor". Discovery after discovery has been pouring in upon us from Oriental lands, and the accounts given only ten years ago of the results of Oriental research are already beginning to be antiquated. It is useful, therefore, to take stock of our present knowledge, and to see how far it bears out that "old story" which has been familiar to us from our childhood.
