Even after the great urban advancement lured people into the great cities of Uruk, Babylon, Rome and Chang''an, most of us continued to live   lightly on the move and outside the pages of history. But recent discoveries   have revealed another story . . . \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWandering people built the first great   stone monuments, such as the one at Göbekli Tepe, seven thousand years before   the pyramids. They tamed the horse, fashioned the composite bow, fought with   the Greeks and hastened the end of the Roman Empire. They had a love of   poetry and storytelling, a fascination for artistry and science, and a   respect for the natural world rooted in reliance and their belief. Embracing   multiculturalism, tolerant of other religions, their need for free movement   and open markets brought a glorious cultural flourishing to Eurasia, enabling   the Renaissance and changing the human story.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eReconnecting with our deepest mythology, our unrecorded antiquity and our natural environment, \u003ci\u003eNomads \u003c\/i\u003eis the untold history of civilisation, told through its outsiders.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MediaPlace","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57317378261374,"sku":"NW9781473677791","price":18.51,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1379\/1261\/files\/9781473677791.jpg?v=1778688519","url":"https:\/\/mediaplace.com\/products\/nomads-1","provider":"MediaPlace","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
