Produktbeschreibung
Anunnaki: Assyrian Gods of Empire reveals the dramatic world of a civilization that believed its destiny was written in the heavens. Rising along the banks of the Tigris, the Assyrians forged an empire unlike any other - a realm where faith and power were one breath, and the god Ashur's will shaped the course of nations. From colossal winged guardians to the sacred temples that aligned with the turning of the cosmos, this book uncovers a culture that saw conquest as divine duty and kingship as the living embodiment of the gods. Rediscovered through buried palaces and clay tablets inscribed with hymns and history, the story of Assyria challenges everything we thought we knew about the ancient Near East. Within these pages, the Anunnaki are not distant figures of myth, but active forces that fueled a machine of empire, innovation, and war. Step inside the royal courts of Nineveh, where rulers believed they carried the fire of creation in their veins, and witness how the same devotion that built a global power ultimately led to its fall. Anunnaki: Assyrian Gods of Empire brings to life the grandeur, spirituality, and ambition of a forgotten superpower whose legacy continues to shape our understanding of religion, kingship, and civilization itself.
Autorenporträt
Riddick Dawson is a historian-author whose work moves at the crossroads of archaeology, mythology, and the hidden traditions of the ancient world. With the spirit of an adventurer and the rigor of a researcher, Dawson has dedicated his career to uncovering the forgotten narratives of humanity-from the lost cities beneath desert sands to the spectral voices of the Dead Sea Scrolls. Drawing on over two decades of study, Dawson's research dives deep into the shadowy domains of the Nephilim, the Anunnaki, and the Watchers of Genesis. His writings chart the intersections between biblical texts, Mesopotamian epics, and comparative myth, revealing startling connections that challenge orthodox timelines and conventional history. In the field, Dawson has pursued evidence across sacred landscapes-temples of Egypt, megaliths of the Near East, and mountain sanctuaries whispered about in apocryphal lore. Beyond the texts and ruins, Dawson is a storyteller. His voice-part scholar, part seeker-brings these ancient enigmas to life for a modern audience hungry to ask the deeper questions: Who were the gods of old? What legacies have they left hidden in stone and scripture? And what does their memory mean for humanity today?
