Author's Request: If you invest in this book, your critical Review will command my full attention. I hope to earn at least 3/5 stars, but if not, the chapter where you could no longer continue reading is, too, of interest. Thank you. DW.
For 200,000 years hunters hunted, gatherers gathered, they sometimes mated. Then something happened. They became civilized. This is that story in six books, deconstructed from Biblical, Greek, Egyptian myth and traditions. To understand why we are the way we are, we must understand how we began. This is my offering. Let those wiser tell it truer. This is the first in the six-book series, "The Beginning of Civilization: Mythologies Told True," which imagines mankind's protohistory deconstructed from mythologies and traditions.
Tallstone and the City tells the simple story of two members of the Clan of the Serpent from their birth through their death—Pumi the stonecutter and Valki the gatherer. Pumi and Valki, through innocent altruistic acts of living, invent sex, create a city, domesticate wheat, establish science, create animal husbandry, and thereby lay the foundation of civilization. They meant no harm.
The story was inspired by and deconstructed from Biblical traditions and myths.
