Summary "History of Ancient Civilization" by Charles Seignobos is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book explores the origins and development of ancient civilizations from prehistoric times through significant cultures such as the Egyptians, Assyrians, and Greeks, providing an extensive overview of their societies, achievements, and contributions to human history. At the start of the book, the author introduces the concept of prehistoric archaeology, discussing the significance of artifacts and remains uncovered that precede written history. Seignobos outlines the four ages of human development—Rough Stone Age, Polished Stone Age, Bronze Age, and Iron Age—detailing the characteristics and advancements of each epoch. He emphasizes the importance of these artifacts in understanding the evolution of human civilization and sets the stage for examining the complexities of ancient societies, their cultures, and advancements in various fields such as religion, governance, and art.
