Description: This book challenges conventional understandings of ancient history, particularly the origins of civilization. The author delves into the Rig Veda, a collection of ancient Indian texts, to uncover a hidden narrative of war and trade. The author argues that the Rig Veda, traditionally viewed as a collection of hymns, is actually a historical record of a conflict between the "Panis" and the "Angiras." The Panis, the author posits, are actually the Phoenicians, a powerful trading people who held sway over vast territories in ancient times. The author goes on to argue that the Phoenicians were responsible for spreading civilization across ancient Egypt, Greece, and beyond. The author uses careful linguistic analysis and an understanding of the societal structures of the time to explore the nature of the conflict between these groups, and their impact on the development of civilization in the ancient world. The book's exploration of the Rig Veda offers a fresh perspective on the origins and dissemination of civilization in ancient times.
