The Extraordinary Voyage of Pytheas the Greek(ISBN=9780142002544) 下载 pdf 2025 网盘 epub 在线 mobi 免费

　　Around 330 b.c., a remarkable adventurer named Pytheas set out

from the Greek colony of Massalia (now Marseille) on the

Mediterranean Sea to explore the fabled, terrifying lands of

northern Europe. Renowned archaeologist Barry Cunliffe here

re-creates Pytheas's unprecedented journey, which occurred almost

300 years before Julius Caesar landed in Britain. Beginning with an

invaluable pocket history of early Mediterranean civilization,

Cunliffe illuminates what Pytheas would have seen and

experienced-the route he likely took to reach Brittany, then

Britain, Iceland, and Denmark; and evidence of the ancient cultures

he would have encountered on shore. The discoveries Pytheas made

would reverberate throughout the civilized world for years to come,

and in recounting his extraordinary voyage, Cunliffe chronicles an

essential chapter in the history of civilization.
