About this audiobook

This bundle consists of 2 books:


Ancient Greece: Thanks to ancient Greece, we know more about philosophy, politics, the democratic system, mythology, art, the Olympics, and many, many lingual references imbedded in almost every European language. Ancient Greece has had a significant impact on many concepts we still hold true today.

Ancient Greece was a northeastern Mediterranean society that existed from the 12th-9th centuries BC till the end of classical antiquity (c. AD 600). It was made up of a loose collection of culturally and linguistically associated city-states and other areas that were only combined once, under Alexander the Great's empire, for 13 years (336-323 BC). Classical antiquity was quickly followed by the Early Middle Ages and the Byzantine period in Western history.


Ancient Egypt: When we think of Ancient Egypt, we picture movies with mazes, pyramids, traps, mummies, and symbols. And although some of these things were definitely part of it, there is so much more to this ancient civilization.

Ancient Egypt was a North African society that grew in the lower banks of the Nile River, in what's now the nation of Egypt. Following ancient Egypt, old Egyptian civilization culminated circa 3100 BC (according to basic Egyptian chronology) with Menes' political marriage of Upper and Lower Egypt (usually related to Narmer). The Old Kingdom of the Early Bronze Age, the Middle Kingdom of the Middle Bronze Age, and the New Kingdom of the Late Bronze Age formed a series of steady kingdoms split up by periods of relative instability called Intermediate Durations.
