Das Land Sumer : die Wiederentdeckung der ersten Hochkultur der Menschheit

The book begins with a brief outline of the scientific path to ancient Sumer, the history of excavations and philosophical research. This is followed by sections about the land and people of the Sumerians. Separate chapters are dedicated to the structure of community life in ancient Sumer, the art, writing and science of this oldest advanced culture and, above all, to religion. The final chapter, in which the lines of intellectual history of development, are particularly worthwhile.
