The present volume begins with an account of what is known about
the remotest geological ages and comprises chapters on the
different kinds of evidence concerning man and his physical
environment up to the end of the Predynastic Period in Egypt and
the parallel stages of development in Mesopotamia, Persia,
Anatolia, Palestine, Cyprus, Greece and the Islands. To trace the
history of these very early times it is necessary to rely chiefly
on material remains, since writing had not then been invented. The
text offers a setting against which the cultural progress of the
historical epoch can be viewed. Archaeological investigation may be
expected to bring to light more evidence to fill some of the
present gaps in our knowledge, but already it is clear that the
gulf between historical and prehistorical times in much of the
ancient world is narrower than was once supposed.
