Klappentext
Was the Iliad a true story? And if so, where did it actually take place?
In this groundbreaking study, Physical Geographer Dr. Ulf Erlingsson applies a rigorous scientific lens to the oldest mystery in Western literature. By analyzing the Iliad's "Catalogue of Ships " line by line-and letter by letter-he reconstructs the lost geography of the Bronze Age.
Dr. Erlingsson's scientific background is in the post-glacial evolution of Southern Scandinavia, including sea-level and climate shifts of the last 15, 000 years. His findings reveal a forgotten reality: the vast majority of Homeric sites are found not in the Mediterranean, but in Scandinavia-preserved through millennia in both name and landscape.
From Boiotian Hyria to the "dwindling" lands of Phthia, this first volume in the Homeros World-series maps the real-world Akhaian coalition at the time of the fall of Troy II.
However, the new findings create more questions than they answer, why this is just the first book in a series. Illustrated in colour with 86 maps and 40 photos.
