О овој е-књизи
Pyramids Beyond Egypt explores the fascinating world of pyramidal architecture beyond the well-known Egyptian examples.
Challenging the conventional Eurocentric view, the book reveals that pyramids, in various forms, exist across continents, reflecting diverse cultures and sophisticated construction techniques.
These structures were not just tombs; they served religious, political, and astronomical purposes, demonstrating a shared human impulse to create lasting legacies.
For instance, Mesoamerican pyramids, like those at Teotihuacan, held immense religious significance, while Southeast Asian step pyramids integrated astronomical alignments.
The book progresses by first introducing global pyramidal architecture, then diving into specific examples such as those in Mesoamerica and Southeast Asia, and concluding with an analysis of construction methods.
By examining archaeological findings, architectural analyses, and historical accounts, the book offers a comparative analysis of pyramid construction, highlighting both common themes and unique regional variations.
This interdisciplinary approach, incorporating archaeology, anthropology, and art history, provides a comprehensive understanding of these ancient monuments and their cultural significance.
It emphasizes that pyramidal architecture is a global phenomenon, reflecting humanity's diverse expressions of power, spirituality, and enduring cultural values.
