A historical novel set in 45 B.C. Damon's medical training under
the Pharaoh's own physician didn't prepare him for his mother's
last illness--or for the adventure that follows. Damon must travel
from Alexandria all the way to Spain, where his father is fighting
in Caesar's army, to deliver the news of his mother's death to the
father he hardly knows. Soon the quiet, studious Damon and his best
friend, the soldierly Artemas, are caught up in danger and
intrigue--from shipwreck and shark attack to the political
maneuverings of Cleopatra, Cicero, and Caesar. Fast-paced and
suspenseful, this compelling historical novel combines page-turning
excitement with a well-researched portrait of the ancient world.
Jill Rubalcaba and Peter Robertshaw recount the unearthing of four
hominins--Turkana Boy, Lapedo Child, Kennewick Man, and Iceman.
Each discovery leads not only to deductions that scientists made in
laboratories, but also to controversial debates over the
scientists' differences of opinion over how, or even if, the pieces
fit together.
Learn how specialized the field of archaeology has become and how
new technology can change both scientists' theories and the way we
view the past.
