When we finally uncover the ruins, we ask: what happened? And so <em>Apocalypse</em> begins by traveling deep into the past, to when <em>Homo sapiens</em> went from being one of many to the only human species on the planetthe apocalypse of extinction that in some ways started it all. Well watch global sea levels rise with devastating speed, and natural disasters shape the landscape in new ways. Youve heard of some of the apocalypses that come next: the end of Old Kingdom Egypt, the collapse of the Classic Maya, the Black Death.</p><p>The good news is: Weve been here before. History is long, and people have already confronted just about every apocalypse were facing today. But these days, archaeologists are getting better at seeing stories of survival, transformation, and even progress hidden within those histories of collapse and destruction. <em>Apocalypse</em> offers a new way of understanding human history, reframing it as a series of crises and cataclysms that we survived, moments of choice in an evolution of humanity that has never been predetermined or even linear. Defying conventional wisdom and long-held stories about our deep past, Lizzie Wade uses new archaeological evidence to reveal how cataclysmic events are not irrevocable endings, but transformations: Apocalypses do not destroy, but create, new worlds.</p><p><em>Apocalypse</em> reckons with these events, how people have survived them, and what legacies theyve imprinted upon our cultures and our psyches. The more we learn about apocalypses past, the more hope we have that we will survive our own. It wont be pleasant. It wont be fair. The world will be different on the other side, and our cultures and communitiesperhaps even our specieswill be different too.</p><p><em>Apocalypse</em> is illustrated throughout with informative maps.</p>...(*_*)9780063097322_<p><strong>"Lizzie Wade is an exceptional journalist and a master storyteller.
