Cyclops Christianus - Algernon Herbert - Bog

- Or An Argument To Disprove The Supposed Antiquity Of The Stonehenge And Other Megalithic Erections (1849)

Bag om Cyclops Christianus

Cyclops Christianus is a book written by Algernon Herbert in 1849. The book presents an argument against the supposed antiquity of Stonehenge and other megalithic structures. Herbert argues that these structures were not built by ancient civilizations, but rather by Christian monks in the Middle Ages. He uses historical and archaeological evidence to support his claim, including the lack of written records of these structures prior to the Middle Ages and the similarity of their construction to known medieval building techniques. The book also includes illustrations and descriptions of the structures in question, as well as a discussion of their possible religious significance. Overall, Cyclops Christianus is a thought-provoking and controversial work that challenges commonly held beliefs about the origins of some of the world's most famous ancient structures.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
