Description

Discover the remarkable history of the Akkadian Empire... Free BONUS Inside!

The Akkadian Empire was one of the first true empires in human history -- and the first to unite a large, multi-ethnic population under a centralized government. From the creation of the earliest known postal system to groundbreaking advances in science, art, and medicine, the Akkadians laid the foundation for civilization as we know it. At its heart stood the city of Akkad, a thriving trade hub and one of the largest cities in the ancient world. And yet, in a surprisingly short time, it all vanished.

The empire collapsed. The city was abandoned. Today, the exact location of Akkad remains a mystery. How could such a powerful empire suddenly fall into ruin? Later civilizations spoke of a divine punishment -- the so-called Curse of Akkad -- but modern research suggests a more tangible culprit: sudden and devastating climate change. This book explores the dramatic rise and mysterious fall of a civilization that shaped the ancient world and then disappeared into legend.

Discover a plethora of topics such as

• Origins: The Black Heads and King Sargon

• Palace Conspiracies and Assassinations

• Naram-Sin and the Curse of Akkad
