Évaluation du vendeur 5 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the ancient and widespread tradition of the "Festival of the Dead," exploring its observance across diverse cultures and throughout history. By examining calendars, festivals, symbols, and traditions, the author uncovers a fascinating connection between this festival and the Pleiades constellation, suggesting its role in regulating the primeval calendar. The author argues that the festival's consistent timing in November across various civilizations, from Peru to India, points to a shared heritage rooted in the Southern Hemisphere. This "Primitive Southern Year," as the author terms it, stands in contrast to the later "Primitive Northern Year" commencing in February. Through meticulous analysis, the book reveals how the "Festival of the Dead" became intertwined with agricultural celebrations and the commemoration of deceased ancestors. It sheds light on the significance of specific dates, such as the 17th of November, which held special meaning for Egyptians, Persians, and even the biblical account of the Great Flood. Ultimately, this book challenges our understanding of ancient calendars and festivals, offering compelling evidence for the unity of human origins and the profound influence of celestial bodies on the development of human culture and beliefs. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9780282550967_0
