Upcoming Book Release

What began as a series of photographs of different sites evolved into short articles describing the photographs and any conclusions I reached from my research. I felt like a story was unfolding and that each site held clues needing to be synthesized to see the larger picture. A unique civilization began to appear before me.

Seeing the sites was one thing, but seeing the Bronze Age computer sky simulations I created against the backdrop of those sites was when things became interesting. I saw what the ancients saw. I understood their stories.

As my research led me to other fields, such as archaeoastronomy and comparative mythology, what began as an amateur archaeological hobby evolved into a rather sizeable multi-disciplined project.

One discovery led to another, different chapters were formed, and I realized this should be a book.

I began this project at what I later understood to be an open-air solar cult center. Months later and two kilometers away, I ended up at a royal tholos tomb. It was a fascinating journey, but it is not over. I am still researching and learning more about the Bronze Age civilization of Kokolata-Livatho.
