"Chaldea: From the Earliest Times to the Rise of Assyria" by Zénaïde A. Ragozin is a journey into ancient Mesopotamia, revealing the story of Chaldea, its people, and its culture before the rise of Assyria. The book begins with the fall of Nineveh and explores the decline of empires, the shift of power from Assyria to Persia and the growing influence of Arabic culture. It explains how forgotten cities and lost knowledge were rediscovered through archaeology, piecing together a civilization left in ruins, that reveals a world that had faded from memory. It paints a picture of a once-great civilization and the events that led to it changing forever.
