Ancient History DVDs
Ancient history is from the period of time when writing and historical records first appear, roughly 5,500 years before the Birth of Christ.
For some, the discovery of agriculture, roughly 6,000 BC is the beginning of ancient history.
The most common date for an end of ancient history in Europe is AD 476 (the fall of the Western Roman Empire), however the exact date is still disputed among various historians.
In Europe ancient history was followed by Late Antiquity and the Middle Ages.
The span of recorded history is roughly 5,000-5,500 years, with cuneiform possibly being the oldest form of writing.
Genetic evidence, however, points to the first appearance of human beings about 150,000 years ago.
There is also a growing body of evidence that Homo sapiens first left Africa about 60,000 years ago.
