Reviews
In Eden in the Altai , Geoffrey Ashe brings a broad base of perspectives to bear on his thesis that the archaic Goddess tradition, closely linked to shamanism, took its origins in the Altai Mountain region of Asia. He does a very good job of contrasting competing historical, geographical, and religious viewpoints as he makes his case., Recent archaeological discoveries in the Altai Mountains of Siberia have revealed the existence of a unique human population known today as the Denisovans. They reached their height around 60,000-70,000 years ago and possessed advanced technologies that may well have contributed to the rise of civilization. Geoffrey Ashe, in his own fascinating quest of discovery, provides compelling evidence that the Altai Mountains are indeed the cradle of human civilization as well as the true Eden of the East.

Synopsis
Reveals how humanity's first advanced culture originated in the Altai-Baikal region of southern Siberia, Reveals how humanity's first advanced culture originated in the Altai-Baikal region of southern Siberia - Explores how this prehistoric culture is the source of the pervasive mythic symbolism of the number 7, found in ancient cosmologies and myths around the world - Traces the Altaic influence on the Rishis of India, the creation of the Vedas, and the origin of the sacred legend of Mount Meru - Explains how the Hellenic cults of both Apollo and Artemis originated in southern Siberia as well as the pervasive bear symbolism found throughout the ancient world Myths of a Golden Age, a paradise at the beginning of human existence, are nearly universal in all cultures. But where was this "Eden" located? Refuting the traditional assumption that the cultures of the Middle East and Mycenae filtered northward into Europe and North Asia, noted historian Geoffrey Ashe instead identifies the northern Altai mountain range and Lake Baikal region of southern Siberia as the true cultural home of humanity and the source of the widespread myths of a prehistoric Golden Age. With evidence dating back as far as 24,000 BC, Ashe shows how the culture of prehistoric southern Siberia was matrifocal, Goddess-worshiping, and heavily shamanic and served as the progenitor of advanced ancient culture in the Western world, the missing link that later influenced Indian, Middle Eastern, Native American, and European society, culture, and religion. He reveals how ancient Altaic culture was the source of the pervasive mythic symbolism of the number 7, found in cosmologies and mythological traditions around the world, as well as reverence for the seven stars of Ursa Major, the Big Dipper, and the idea of a "sacred mountain to the North." He traces the transmission of these cosmological beliefs into Babylon and ancient Greece by migrating tribes, including those that crossed the now-vanished land bridge to the New World. Ashe reveals how this transmission of beliefs had a profound influence on the seven-note musical scale, the seven astrological planets, and the seven vowels of the Greek alphabet, as well as the development of seven as a sacred number in Judaism. He shows how the ancient Altai-Baikal culture influenced the Rishis of India, the creation of the Vedas, and the sacred legend of Mount Meru. He also reveals how the Hellenic cults of both Apollo and Artemis originated in southern Siberia as well as the sacred bear symbolism found throughout the ancient world. Offering proof that advanced cultures existed in Europe before the immigration of Eastern peoples, Ashe shows that early societies did not look into the future for perfection but to the past, to the Golden Age of peace in the sacred northern mountains., Reveals how humanity's first advanced culture originated in the Altai-Baikal region of southern Siberia * Explores how this prehistoric culture is the source of the pervasive mythic symbolism of the number 7, found in ancient cosmologies and myths around the world * Traces the Altaic influence on the Rishis of India, the creation of the Vedas, and the origin of the sacred legend of Mount Meru * Explains how the Hellenic cults of both Apollo and Artemis originated in southern Siberia as well as the pervasive bear symbolism found throughout the ancient world Myths of a Golden Age, a paradise at the beginning of human existence, are nearly universal in all cultures.

    1st time buying from this seller. I will go go with Positive because there was only 1 GLARING Negative. I would consider buying from again only if I was assured that negative was fixed. The miniatures are a Value. The Miniatures are exactly as described. The miniatures were shipped in a box but painted vintage lead miniatures were 10 to a bag dinking around with some bubble wrap on the outside of the bag. I can only assume this seller has never shipped a miniature before

    Was packaged really well and protected with a good layer of bubble wrap and air pocket packaging. Item arrived in great condition with only a small bit of the box bent a bit (no fault of the seller just how things go with shipping and items like this). The price was very close to the original msrp which is why I immediately jumped on buying it. In terms of quality, everything in the box is in good shape and I wouldn’t hold seller to that anyway. Overall would definitely recommend this seller.
